OPC Devices Mirroring Filters

On the sender, use the OPC Connections settings to control OPC UA client connection mirroring.

Property

Type

Default

Description

Enable OPC Connections

Boolean

Disabled

Enabling mirroring of OPC Devices

Whitelisted OPC Connections

String

empty

optional line-separated list of exact OPC connection names to include

Blacklisted OPC Connections

String

empty

optional line-separated list of exact OPC connection names to exclude

Filter rules:

  • Names are exact after trimming whitespace.

  • Leave the whitelist empty to include all eligible devices.

  • The blacklist wins over the whitelist.

  • Put one device name on each line.

  • Wildcards and partial matches are not supported.

Filter rules are the same as device filters. The sender ignores Ignition's internal OPC UA server connection, so only external OPC-UA client connections are mirrored.

The receiver creates local mirrored OPC connections with the same names as the sender connections. Avoid name collisions on the receiver. The receiver also needs a valid local OPC UA connection security template, normally provided by an existing Ignition OPC UA connection resource, so the module can create 8.3-shaped OPC connection resources.


Device Mirroring Filters

On the sender, use the OPC UA Devices settings to control device mirroring.

Property

Type

Default

Description

Enable OPC Connections

Boolean

Disabled

Enabling mirroring of OPC Devices

Whitelisted OPC-UA Connections

String

empty

optional line-separated list of exact OPC connection names to include

Blacklisted OPC-UA Connections

String

empty

optional line-separated list of exact OPC connection names to exclude

Filter rules:

  • Names are exact after trimming whitespace.

  • Leave the whitelist empty to include all eligible devices.

  • The blacklist wins over the whitelist.

  • Put one device name on each line.

  • Wildcards and partial matches are not supported.

The sender reads device inventory from Ignition's com.inductiveautomation.opcua/device resources. Device status follows the sender gateway's live device health.

Disabled devices can appear with Disabled status but do not produce live values.
