My certificate is expired and I need to reissue.Date Time Level Source Event17/10/2023 09.52.42 Error UA Server The UA server certificate is expired. Please use the OPC UA Configuration Manager to reissue the certificate.When I try to login to administration window (after loading OPC UA Configuration program) I can't login, I have no feedback after entering credentials.Someone with the same problem?Just updated from 6.9 to 6.11, nothing changed.  

I have installed this software on windows 10 pro OS. Whenever i try to select the driver in connectivity option like OPC DA client/ UA client the application window gets exited without any error.        

We are faced with the situation that the queries sent to an OPC UA server from Kepware Server lead to insufficient resources on the control computer. Now we are looking for optimization possibilities to relieve the load on the CPU of the PLC. In doing so, we came across the complex types. Is it possible to reduce the load caused by querying the data points by using them?   From the documentation:    

Please suggest for data polling from ABB 800XA 6.0.0 to computer which is in restricted company network policy in domain. can I do it with kepserverex 5.5 version, what driver/service i have to get additionally.  Controller is ABB 800M. Computer configuration is redundant server/client.           

Hi!Do you have any hardware requirement recommendations for kepware depending on connected PLC, tag number, and data change rate?For example, if we going to connect 500 PLC with 200 tags per PLC, and we need high read rates (1s, max 2 sec delay) for 10 tags per PLC, what are the HW recommended requirements for our KW server?(KEPServerEX v6.13 Manufacturing Suite) Thanks!   

I have a tag on a Molding press for Cooling Time that counts up and then zeroes out.  I am writing the data to a database using a trigger called New Data Flag.  When the new data flag kicks from 0 to 1 I write the data to the database.  Unfortunately the cooling time tag is at zero when the new data flag changes over.     So I think I can fix this by creating an advanced tag that will monitor the Cooling Time tag.  I only want the advanced tag to update if the Cooling time tag is not zero.  By doing this I will always end up with the last non zero value from the Cooling Time tag when the New Data Flag changes from 0 to 1.     My assumption is that a derived tag may work but I am not sure how to setup the expression.  Any help would be appreciated.        

I am trying to read a tag using IoT Gateway.I am using POSTMAN as testing toolGET http://143.28.91.145:39320/iotgateway/read?ids=LPDASTTT.UPack_To_FDM_Alex.PO_Download.Init.ProductID.DATA/8 with no authentication gives me proper result,butGET http://143.28.91.145:39320/iotgateway/read?ids=LPDASTTT.UPack_To_FDM_Alex.PO_Download.Init.ProductID.DATA/8 with basic authentication and username Administrator and password (my Administrator password for KepserverEX) returns 500 internal server error. The version of kepserver is 6.11

Dear Community,yet another question for you; regarding the Beckhoff TwinCat driver;I only want to import OPC Variables which I have marked/commented in TwinCat.I commented them as intented for the OPC-Import:(*~ (OPC:1:available for OPC Clients)(OPC_PROP[0005] : 1 : read only)*)Unfortunately, when I import the device with"Respect OPC Read/Write Item Properties", "Respect Tag Case On Import" and "Only Import Variables Marked for OPC" enabled no tags at all are created.Why? Am I doing something wrong? I do not have any additional filters configured.Thanks in advance for your help.Kind regards,Kepware User

Hi, my name is Ben Lau, the Project Engineer from a System Integrator in Hong Kong. I would like to communicate with the Johnson Controls NAE and Schneider SmartX controllers through BACnet I/P driver of your KEPSeverEX software. However, I have difficulties in configuration details: When attempting automatic tag generation for a node under Schneider SmartX Controller, the diagnostics window displayed completed status (only built-in tags generated by KEPServer BACnet I/P driver is available) but the following two warnings:"Error reading segmentation supported from remote device. Segmentation will not be supported.""Error reading object list from device. | Class = '1 (Object)', Code = '31 (Unknown Object)'." When attempting automatic tag generation for Johnson Controls NAE Controller, the diagnostics window displayed "Unable to generate a tag database for (Device Name). The device is not responding.".Please refer to the attached screenshots for current BACnet I/P settings for

As per this topic:   Hello all,    I have the similar study but my first plc is control logic  (see the screenshot). I still not able to define the device ID. can you please help?

Hi, i am using KEPServerEX 6, connected to Mitsubishi PLCs through Mitsubishi Ethernet Driver, Q Series Model. Total there are 5 connections with the same configurations and settings, and 4 are communicating fine. However for the remaining 1 PLC, i am able to ping to the IP address of the plc, but when i run the OPC Quick Client, i am getting Bad for Quality and Unknown for Value. However, occasionally i am able to get good quality with proper values from the plc. I would like to know how should i go about troubleshooting it, thank you.    

I'm having problems troubleshooting an SLC5/05 tag syntax.  I am using Open Addressing and both of my OPC UA utilities required imported tags.  Any tools or utilities I can use? 

Caution: Multiple licenses of the same product cannot be activated on one machine. Attempting to do so will result in the loss of the license. kepware como resolver? oque fazer quando aparece esta mensagem no kepware?

Currently we have KepserverEx V5.21.236 with a 2017 licence on our server. Which version am I eligible for free?Because the screenshot says V6.3. Thank you! 

Hello, Is there any possibility to connect a Fanuc Robot to a Kepware Server by an ethernet connection?  

Hi  I want to connect the control logic 5500 into kepware using routing path. the first plc connected to the network same as the server and the second plc is connected locally to the first plc. can someone give me the device ID? see the attached screenshot      

Hi All,I'm facing an issue with KEPSERVER EX and MODBUS TCP/IP.I have one Channel for MODBUS communication and in it 8 devices (each has 16 tags). Each of it commucating with same IP but with different ID to read data from different channels.When I have only 5 devices, all works fine. When I add more, I'm not able to read devices from ID5 to 8 (warning - device is not responding), but the first 4 still works fine.I've tried to separate devices to other channel, tried to raise the Scan rate to 20 seconds for each tag. but nothing helped.I've tried to read the IDs from vendors app, which is communication also over modbus and it works fine for all devices in same time. do you have any suggestions/ideas what to do?Many thanks  

We recently update Kepware version but start some error with a driver of control logix 5500 the plc is some old and have the firmware version 20.0, and some times lose connection and try to generate the tags but fail until we start the create tags of the driver some know why happen this or some advise

Hi. We are installing a trial verison of Kepware on our VM Hyper-V to see if the OPC server is working before we are ordering a license. But i just getting bad quality from the Mitsubishi PLC. The server is a 2019 windows server. When im trying from my Windows 11 computer is working with no problem. I have disabled anti-virus, firewall everything and still not working.Any suggestions?   

Hello everybody, I´m struggling an issue with KepserverEX 6.11 and OPC UA client. I´m trying to add a tag, "ProgramPointer", from ABB IoT Gateway 1.3 and I´m getting this message in the event log: "OPC UA Client ABB_IoT.R21 | UA data type not supported. Tag cannot be imported. | Tag name = 'ns=3;s=2600-11****_2600-11****/RAPID/T_ROB1/ProgramPointer', UA data type node id = 'ns=2;i=15108'". I´ve tried to connect to the ABB IoT gateway (OPC UA-server) with a couple of other OPC UA clients and they can read the value of the tag without any problems, the value looks like this: {mModulename | Routinename | Rownumber}. Is it because the value is divided in to three different data that KepserverEx is complaining? I might add the there isn´t any issues with other tags, just this Programpointer tag. Thanks Regards      

Team, Need your help, i am getting a syntax error while configuring the Tags for the Simulator enabled Channel-Device. Please find the attached file for your reference. Thanks,Regards
