Canary and our company share a common tag definition and asset modeling

In addition to the embedded Canary Historian, we also have a new built-in integration with the Canary System that is easy to use, high speed and extremely secure, as it leverages Canary’s .NET API to connect at the core level, allowing you to publish and consume data and use Canary’s tags and models as well.

There is no need for extra configuration or even to create tags within our framework platform — simply define the server and browse the assets you need!

Node Configuration

The station parameters are:

  • ServerName: The name or IP address of the machine running the CanaryLabs Historian. (If the service is not running in the default port, the syntax should be: ComputerName:PortNumber or IpAddress:PortNumber)
  • ClientID: Indicates the client identification that is used to make calls in the Canary service
  • ConnectionType: Specifies the ConnectionType with the service

               The options are:

    • Anonymous: Connection using no credentials
    • UserName: Connection using a username/password that is defined in CanaryAdmin
    • Windows: Connection using Windows credentials
  • UserName: The user name used for verification (Valid for the Username and Windows connection types)
  • Password: The password used for verification (Valid for the Username and Windows connection types)
  • Views: A list of views found in the specified ServerName. If the view is virtual, the Node will be Read-Only
  • Dataset: The name of the dataset you will connect to. (Not available when the selected view is Virtual)
Always test your connection with a Test Button.

Setup

To setup canary to operate in your FrameworX solution, activate the number of tags for Canary on Solution → Settings menu.

How to Configure

To configure the CanaryLabs protocol as a ExternalTag, navigate to Unified Namespaces  >  ExternalTags Sources  and create a new connection for the CanaryLabs Communication Driver.

Configure the items under the PrimaryStation column the same way that was described in the Node Configuration. To see more details about setup a Canary ExternalTag please see the CanaryLabs TagProvider page.
