Ignition UDT Instances in Seconds

Generate Ignition UDT instance JSON files from loaded structure definitions. Define your UDT structure once, then create multiple instances with different tag paths and configurations for your SCADA system.

Real-World Scenarios

Built for engineers like you

SCADA Developer

Building an Ignition project for a facility with 100+ motors, each needing a UDT instance with unique OPC paths

Load T_MOTOR template, upload motor list, generate all instances with correct paths.

System Integrator

Migrating a plant's HMI from a legacy system to Ignition, need UDT instances for every existing tag

Export tag list, configure UDT mapping, batch-generate all instances.

The Problem

Manually creating UDT instance files for Ignition SCADA projects.

What PLCflow Does

  • Load UDT structure definition
  • Configure instance parameters
  • Generate and download JSON files

Before & After

See the difference PLCflow makes on a real project.

Manual Process 2-4 hours
  • Manually create each UDT instance in Ignition Designer
  • Copy, rename, and update OPC paths one at a time
  • 50 motors = 50 repetitions of the same tedious process
  • One typo in an OPC path and a tag doesn't resolve
With PLCflow 5 minutes
  • Load UDT structure, upload instance spreadsheet
  • Configure OPC paths and naming patterns
  • Generate all instances as JSON in one operation
  • Import into Ignition, every path correct

Engineered for Complexity

Purpose-built capabilities for industrial-scale projects.

SCADA / HMI

Template-Based Generation

Load a UDT structure, define instance parameters, and generate properly structured JSON for every instance.

Bulk Instance Creation

Generate 5, 50, or 500 instances from a single template with sequential naming and unique tag paths.

Custom OPC Paths

Configure OPC item paths per instance for direct SCADA-to-PLC connectivity.
