OPC Unified Architecture – OPC UA in short – is a cross-platform, open-source machine-to-machine communication protocol for industrial automation. It was developed by the Open Platform Communications (OPC) Foundation and is defined in detail in the IEC 62541 standard. With the release of the Arduino_OPC_UA library we enable users to convert any product from our Arduino Opta range into an OPC UA-enabled device. Step-by-step guide to setting up OPC UA on Arduino Opta It’s as simple as uploading a single sketch onto your Opta and connecting it to an Ethernet network. Once uploaded, the OPC UA firmware exposes the Arduino Opta’s analog and digital inputs, the user button and LED (only Arduino Opta WiFi), as well as its relay outputs as properties that can be read from or written to using OPC UA. OPC UA communication is performed using OPC UA binary encoding via TCP sockets. Arduino_OPC_UA is a port of the Fraunhofer open62541 library implementing IEC 62541 in highly portable C99 for both Windows and Linux targets. One serious challenge during the porting of open62541 was to decide on sensible tradeoffs concerning RAM consumption, as using OPC UAs full namespace zero (NS0) requires up to 8 MB of RAM while the STM32H747 powering the Arduino Opta has a total of 1 MB of SRAM to offer – some of which already allocated by the the Arduino framework for the Arduino Opta. Expand functionality with Arduino Opta Modules and OPC UA integration Additionally, Arduino_OPC_UA supports the automatic discovery, configuration and exposure as OPC UA objects of the recently released Arduino Opta expansion modules. Currently three different expansion modules exist: Arduino Opta Analog Expansion (A0602), Arduino Opta Digital Expansion with electro-mechanical relay outputs (D1608E), and with solid-state relay outputs (DS1608S). During system start-up, the Arduino Opta’s expansion bus is queried for connected expansion modules and automatically configures them and
FAQs
Is this display multitouch-enabled?
Yes, the display supports up to 5 simultaneous touch points.
How do I connect the GIGA Display Shield to the GIGA R1 WiFi?
The GIGA Display Shield connects via the middle headers (J5 and J6) on the GIGA R1 WiFi. Attach the shield from the bottom, leaving the top side of the GIGA R1 WiFi available for additional shields.
Will I still have access to all pins when the display is attached?
Yes, you will retain access to all pins on the top side of the board (54 pins) even when the display is connected.
Does the shield require an external power supply?
No, the GIGA Display Shield does not require an external power supply. It is powered directly through the connection.
Which cameras are compatible with the shield?
The GIGA Display Shield is fully compatible with 20-pin DVP cameras from Arducam, such as the OV7675. For more information, visit the Arducam catalog of compatible cameras.
In which direction is the camera connector oriented?
The camera connector pinout is configured to ensure that compatible Arducam models face the same direction as the screen, resembling a selfie mode for a seamless and user-friendly experience.
