Open connectivity
GENESIS64™ supports industry standard communications such as OPC™, OPC UA, MODBUS®, BACnet®, MQTT, web services, and various databases such as SQL Database, Oracle®, and ODBC can be directly connected without an OPC server. Simple device discovery on the network makes integration seamless and efficient. The Mitsubishi Electric Factory Automation (FA) Connector supports MELSEC iQ-R and iQ-F Series. Other devices that do not require an OPC server will be added in the future.
