KONE OPC Data Access Server 4.1

KONE OPC Data Access Server is middleware from KONE that exposes real-time operational data from KONE elevators, escalators, and related building transportation systems to third-party software via the OPC Data Access (OPC DA) standard. It enables building management systems (BMS), SCADA platforms, and analytics tools to monitor and supervise KONE equipment through a vendor-neutral, widely supported interface.

Key capabilities:

• Standards-based connectivity: Implements OPC DA for broad compatibility with common OPC client applications.
• Real-time data exchange: Publishes equipment tags for live monitoring of operating states and performance (for example, car position, direction, door status, availability, and basic fault indicators), depending on system configuration.
• Streamlined integration: Reduces custom development effort by using a familiar industrial protocol, helping centralize monitoring across diverse systems.

Typical deployment:

• Windows-based service that uses COM/DCOM for local or networked OPC DA communications.
• Access control and network configuration are managed through Windows permissions, DCOM security settings, and appropriate firewall rules.

Use cases:

• Integrating KONE equipment data into BMS or SCADA dashboards.
• Centralized operations monitoring in control rooms.
• Sending live operational values to analytics or notification systems.

Note: Supported equipment models, available tag sets, performance limits, and exact system requirements vary by version and site configuration. Refer to KONE’s official documentation or contact KONE support for detailed specifications and implementation guidance.
