Action˳Net - New Features in Version 9.2
Welcome to the featured news list of version 9.2.
The most modern SCADA software in Brazil is evolving and its new version presents a number of novelties. Check out the list below for even more features that Action˳NET now offers in this new version.
Canary database integration
See here the advantages of a Canary Database.
Includes embedded integration to the Canary Historical Database.
Includes free Canary Historical Database for 500 Tags.
Possibility of adding Tags to the Canary Database.
Native integration to Canary Bank via Tag Provider.
Connection to Canary Database
In addition to the built-in Canary Historian, we also have a new integration with Canary System that is easy to use, high-speed and extremely secure, as it leverages Canary's .NET API to connect, allowing you to publish and consume data, as well as use Canary tags and templates.
No need for extra configuration or even create tags within the Action.NET – just set the server and browse the assets you need!
Asset Modeling
Easily develop a unified namespace or any asset hierarchy
Easily add and combine metadata from multiple systems into a single cohesive asset model.
Organize your Tags into a folder structure with Logical Names.
Simplify viewing and navigation through templates.
Consume or integrate external models or namespaces.
Automatic tag creation.
Contextualize your data. Provide the information to anyone, anywhere at any time.
Dynamic TagProvider
Automatic connections and no Tags!
Connect to external data sources and use their namespaces.
Automatically access all tags and data structures just by connecting to the provider with a simple configuration.
The connected provider's Tags and Namespace will be available for use Action.NET (screens, scripts, symbols, and more).
Many types of tag providers.
Protocols, Historians or Devices.
New MQTT Tools and Improvements
New MQTT simulator.
New built-in broker.
SparkplugB enhancements.
Azure IoT Hub.
Store-and-Forward.
HiveMQ integration.
MQTT Client: Simulation
With Action.NET 9.2, we're launching an MQTT Client simulator (with Sparkplug) to make testing easier and faster – testing for projects in general, testing for communication with the MQTT Action.NET Client and testing our new Dynamic Tag Provider functionality with MQTT.
Why fight with various tools? With this simulator, you can easily publish 30,000 simulated values to MQTT Broker – all from the same design environment.
HiveMQ
We managed to make choosing an MQTT Broker very easy!
Anyone who knows MQTT knows that projects that use this technology need an MQTT Broker: with FrameworX, we connect to any broker that uses the MQTT protocols, as well as MQTT SparkplugB and Azure IoT, and we have included an embedded MQTT Broker for testing and development.
But as your applications grow or you want the benefit and support of an enterprise-class MQTT Broker. You can now purchase a packaged HiveMQ subscription license with any Tatsoft product:
Available in various configurations.
HiveMQ Industrial Edge - Basic Edition - 250 MQTT Customers.
HiveMQ Industrial Edge - Premier Edition - 1000 MQTT customers.
HiveMQ Professional Edition - Unlimited Customers.
OPC UA Improvements
Easy integrations: Easier to find and navigate through data; based on the latest OPC UA specifications.
Safer: Easier to set up; More authentication and encryption features to protect data.
More connectivity: support is available for Windows and Linux devices.
Improved performance: performance improvements, connecting and exchanging data faster than before.
HTML5
Web interface for Windows and Linux servers!

Support improvements in LinuxGeneral improvements in:
| Rockwell ControlLogix and CompactLogix Auto-DiscoverYou can now connect to a ControlLogix and see all available CLP addresses – this means that ControlLogix can be added as a tag provider, allowing you to access your data models and definitions without creating tags on Action.NET. |
Edge Store-And-Forward
Canary and MQTT
We've added store-and-forward functionality when Action.NET publishes data to Canary Historian or an MQTT Broker, which means that we temporarily store a message's data for transmission to its destination later if the network is not accessible for some reason.
This functionality is essential in data collection projects, where data is sent to a remote repository.
