Bridge for the Base Star Mechanical Sub

A .NET solution that bridges Halliburton's Base Star mechanical sub signals to the DWIS Blackboard, including shared semantic models, manifest generation, and OPC-UA integration helpers.

Solution overview

The solution is organized around a single goal: reliably map Base Star signals into DWIS with consistent semantics and verifiable data flow.

Projects

• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.Model - The authoritative semantic model for Base Star signals.
• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.ExportDataStructures - Helper tool to generate signal manifests for DWIS.
• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.OPCUASource - OPC-UA source to publish Base Star signals for testing and integration.
• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.OPCUASink - OPC-UA sink to read signals back from the DWIS Blackboard.
• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.Server - Runtime bridge that connects OPC-UA data to the DWIS Blackboard.
• DWIS.DAQBridge.BaseStar.Schemas - Shared schemas supporting signal definitions and exchange.

Data flow (high level)

1. Base Star signals are defined in the semantic model.
2. Manifests are generated to describe the signal set to DWIS.
3. The OPC-UA source can publish live or simulated signals for validation.
4. The server bridge subscribes to OPC-UA and publishes to the Blackboard.
5. The OPC-UA sink can read back published values for verification.

When to use this solution

• Integrating Base Star live data into DWIS deployments.
• Validating end-to-end signal mapping and publication workflows.
• Updating the Base Star signal set and regenerating manifests.

Notes

• Keep the semantic model updated before regenerating manifests.
• Verify signal publication using the sink after any mapping changes.
