Hi team,

I have a Honeywell PHD source system. I have a got a suggestion to use Cognite OPC Classic Extractor. But I can see Extractor suggested is beta version. Can I know, it is efficient to use the Cognite OPC Classic Extractor, or we should go with custom extractor.

If we use ,Cognite OPC Classic Extractor it connects over COM+ or DCOM to OPC servers and streams live and historical data into CDF. Can you please elaborate on COM+COM+ or DCOM connectivity to OPC Servers. 

How to connect with Honeywell PHD server using either of the ways?

 

 

 

 

Thanks

I don’t know for sure. My googling seems to only indicate support for OPC Classic, not OPC-UA. Presumably you have access to the source system and related documentation and are better placed than me to determine what it supports and doesn’t support.

It looks to me like OPC Classic is how you connect to Honeywell PHD. If so, then are you sure that applications connecting to it aren’t already using COM/DCOM? You can use COM+ or DCOM safely provided you make sure to run it on an isolated network, using a dedicated user with limited permissions.
