Change Description


It is now possible to directly create operations for generated OPC UA devices. This does not apply to all OPC UA operations. Only node-specific operations can be executed on that level. General operations such as address-space scan are still only allowed on the OPC UA Server. An additional configuration (gateway.operation.validateDeviceOperationNodes) has been added to enable/disable a validation check if the node-specific operation is done on a node which belongs to the device. If the check is enabled the opcua-device-gateway executes the operation after validation. If the node doesn’t belong to the device node list an alarm is created.
