The TOP Server® Danfoss AKC 55 Driver provides a communication interface to Danfoss AKC 55 controllers with the same level of performance, stability and ease of configuration as any other TOP Server driver. This driver provides data exchange between OPC UA, OPC DA, SuiteLink and DDE clients and Danfoss AKC 55 devices supporting the AKC 55 protocol over Serial connections. Data acquisition is optimized based on upstream client demand while data integrity is ensured using extensive error handling. If you have other Danfoss controllers they likely also support Modbus and the TOP Server Modbus Suite would be a good choice. Be sure and look at the communications options for your Danfoss device.
Available here as a standalone real-time data driver or also available in the following vertical Industry Suite:
