ToddySoft Connect
Industrial Protocol Drivers
Bridge the gap between legacy industrial systems and modern infrastructure with our comprehensive suite of protocol drivers.
Connect Any Industrial Device
ToddySoft Connect provides a unified interface for communicating with industrial equipment, regardless of the underlying protocol.
Industrial environments are complex, with equipment from different vendors using various communication protocols. ToddySoft Connect eliminates this complexity by providing standardized drivers that translate between these protocols and modern data formats.
Whether you're working with PLCs, SCADA systems, sensors, or other industrial devices, ToddySoft Connect gives you a consistent API to read and write data, monitor status, and receive events.
Apache PLC4X Compatible: All ToddySoft Connect drivers are API-compatible with Apache PLC4X. If your system already uses PLC4X, you can seamlessly integrate our commercial drivers as drop-in replacements.
