Which Protocol Types are supported when creating a new I/O Server in an IDAS connection?

When creating a new I/O Server in an IDAS connection, SuiteLink is indeed a supported protocol type. SuiteLink is a protocol developed specifically for seamless integration and communication between AVEVA products, ensuring reliable data exchange in real-time applications. Its design allows for efficient data transfer while maintaining high performance and accuracy in the communication process within AVEVA systems.

On the other hand, OPC (OLE for Process Control) is a widely recognized standard in industrial automation, but it is not explicitly tied to IDAS connections in the context of AVEVA Historian. Similarly, Delta and MX protocols may have their specific applications within different contexts or technologies, but they do not pertain to the properties or functionalities within IDAS connection configurations. Therefore, SuiteLink stands out as the appropriate choice due to its specific application and compatibility with AVEVA systems, allowing for robust integration and efficient data handling.
