| Summary: |
| When used in conjunction with Citect’s OPC
driver, some OPC Servers exhibit the behaviour of shutting down
immediately after they have been started by CitectSCADA. It is
possible for this to be an intermittent problem, but generally it
is reproducible and repeated every [OPC]WatchTime seconds as
CitectSCADA tries to reconnect.
OPC Servers that go through a series of startup states before
reaching OPC_STATUS_RUNNING tend to demonstrate this
behaviour. |
| Solution: |
| Citect has confirmed this to be a problem
in OPC version 1.15.16.1 and earlier. This problem has been fixed
in version 1.15.17.002 via the citect.ini parameter
[OPC]ServerOnlineStates.
[OPC]ServerOnlineStates defines the list of OPC Server states that the driver considers online. The format is a "|" separated string (spaces are not allowed) of the following possible states: - "RUNNING" By default "RUNNING" is the only state regarded as online. If you are experiencing the shutdown issue it is recommended that the following states are used: [OPC] |
