This is an amazing and very accessible (a few hours of lectures) introduction to the OPC standards and OPC Server/Client communication. I loved the clear explanation of the concepts, as well as the hands-on activities which allow to put them in practice.

Very well explained. Such a helpful course for OPC Dummies. Hope you can have a part 2 of this course with more simulations and examples. Perhaps other opc course using other communication protocol aside from Modbus.

I have taught how the OPC server is connected to client in a way to establish only the basic understanding of OPC. then I proceed my knowledge and experience with Kepserver OPC and went back to opc fundamentals using this course. Really after experience I already have in KEPSERVER, this course shows me new information i need to know. really I don't hesitate to recommend this course for beginners in system integration.

Great course! every subject is explain in a clear manner with real hands on examples, these examples make your learning easier since you can really see how the system communication protocol works vs. just theory. Two thumbs up!

This course deserves only two words "TOP CLASS". The narration in all the lectures is clear and fantastic. Anybody with no prior knowledge of OPC can easily understand and learn it. Infact, the knowledge gained from this course can be used to teach other automation engineers on the job.
Thank you Emile for creating such a course.

I may recall incorrectly but the course skips over parts on setting up the modbus communication within the plc itself.

Very nice course, always practical and to the point, as the other courses. I really would have liked to have had more information on OPC UA, though.

This course is exactly what it says: How to install and configure OPC Client/Server Software. It is not an in depth exposition of OPC or its uses, but it serves as a starting point for anyone who is interested in the hardware and software connections between PLCs and the SCADA clients.
