Native VTScada Protocols

Definitions:

DH

Dual homed.

Native Serial

Driver supports native serial communication as defined in protocol standard document(s) on PC serial ports using VTScada "Serial Port" tags

Modem

Driver supports native serial communication as defined in protocol standard document(s) over modems defined in the operating system

Native TCP/IP

Driver supports native TCP/IP communication to devices as defined in the protocol standard document(s)

TCP/IP Tunnel

Driver supports tunnelling of serial protocol via Ethernet-connected TCP/IP to serial converters using VTScada "TCP/IP Port" tags

Native UDP/IP

Driver supports native UDP/IP communication to devices as defined in the protocol standard.

UDP/IP Tunneled

Driver supports tunneling of serial protocol via Ethernet-connected UDP/IP to serial converters using VTScada "UDP/IP Port" tags.

Other Connection

Driver supports device or protocol specific interface or methodology not covered by above definitions (e.g. ODBC).

Virtual PLC

Driver supports VTScada acting as a memory-mapped PLC or RTU that other devices can read from or write to.
