Dear all

We have OPC DA connection to the system having RSLinx Remote OPC server. Kepware is disconnecting frequently from the RSLinx system. Where as it is running fine from the development environment with same configuration. Kindly suggest troubleshooting methods for the same.

Kepware Name and version: 

Thingworx Industrial Connectivity 8.3.65

Here is the error message

Date Time Level Source Event
9/18/2023 12:10:18 PM Warning OPC DA Client Failed to connect to server on channel 'Group-2'.

[RD_11025017]

did u find a solution ?

[AnudeepYenduri]

No, but the recommendation from Kepware is to have a watchdog on the connection.

Greetings

There might be a possible reason for disconnection is a network issue, so please ensure that the watchdog in the client driver is enabled.
