Add OPC capability for integration with outside PLC control.

I would love the ability to communicate with command batch with any type of OPC server (I use Kepware). The main use I am looking for is the ability to receive the material names and their bin locations to my PLC that operates the plants material handling system. I'm hoping to use this feature to prevent the wrong material being sent up to the plant.

    We are actively building our next generation hardware solutions to include open communication to industrial controls and better management of smart metrics that they can provide. We are currently evaluating industrial protocols like OPC.
