Exaquantum Adaptor

The Exaquantum Adaptor supports the Yokogawa Exaquantum plant historian suite. 

The Exaquantum Adaptor requires the appropriate version of the Exaquantum SDK to be installed on the IFS OI Explorer server. This requires a license, which is a third party component.


Adaptor Parameters

The following tables list the adaptor's parameters, along with the name and type to be used in the Import/Export spreadsheet.

Parameter Description Name Type
Server Fully qualified name of the server machine on which the historian is hosted. Server String
User ID User ID to use to connect to the historian. UserID String
Password Password for the User ID used to connect to the historian. Password EncryptedString
Use Multi-Access Determines whether the Multi Access Reader Class will be used for accessing the historian. UseMultiAccess Boolean

Import Aggregation Tags Determines whether tags under the "Aggregations" folder will be return during tag discovery. ImportAggregationTags Boolean

Prerequisites

  • The Exaquantum SDK needs to be installed on the IFS OI Server Machine. The version should match the version of the historian in use. If the Exaquantum SDK has breaking changes between versions, contact IFS OI Customer Support for help.
  • The Exaquantum SDK uses DCOM to communicate across the network. The Windows Domain logon account used to access Exaquantum also needs to be used to run the IFS OI Data broker service (the service must run as this user).
  • Your Exaquantum administrator will be able to advise on how to setup Exaquantum security.
  • On the IFS OI Server, this same Windows Domain account will need to be given network permissions in the DCOM Config privileges on the IFS OI Explorer server.
