Kepware not pushing properties to thingworx

Hi, 

 

I have connected a KEPServerEX6 to ThingWorx and the isConnected property reads TRUE. 

When I try to add properties to the Remotething from a remote binding, no properties are available.
I have blurred out some parts of serveradress and thing names due to company resctrictions.

Using ThingWorx composer 8.2.4 (no new composer available) and KepServerEX 6 

Please see the attached pictures.

Hey @jonasf 

 

the connection between Thingworx and Kepware is based on a different approach than the Remote Thing connections for the SDKs or the MicroServer. 

 

You need to you the new Composer and use the "Discover" Tab on the IndustrialThing that is connected with Kepware.

A different approach is to use the Manufacturing apps: https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/configure-manufacturing-apps

Thank you, I was able to enter the new composer by enabling it in preferences.Capture2.PNG
