Hi 

I am connecting a Hurco CNC to Thingworx Mnf Apps. MTConnect is installed on the CNC. In Kepware I selected MTConnect when creating a channel. After creating Device I tried to create tags by clicking the create tags link from the tag generation tab , then I got the following errors:

Warning: Unable to generate a tag database for device 'MTConnect.Hurco': 'HTTP error: 404'

Warning: Unable to generate a tag database for device 'MTConnect.Device1': 'Unable to connect to the agent'.

    The help documentation for the driver is available here:

    Unfortunately there is no simple answer to your question. There are many possible causes to the issue that you are reporting as there are multiple points of interaction between our driver, third-party software, and the network/operating systems involved.

     

    For specific assistance with your installation, please open a Technical Support case here:
