Read and Write OPC UA Values in Node-RED
This Node-RED flow demonstrates how to connect to an OPC UA server to both read and write data values. It uses the OpcUa-Item node to specify the target nodes and includes basic logic for periodic reading and conditional writing. Ideal for industrial automation or IoT projects involving PLC communication over the OPC UA protocol.
