Topic:  OPC: Myths and Misconceptions – What is the Truth about OPC?

When handling OPC technology it’s important to be aware of what is fact and what is fiction.  This presentation will highlight key misconceptions and acknowledge when and how OPC should and should not be used.  Drawing on a catalog of hundreds of installations, some key factors will emerge and point to where OPC is going in the future.
