Hi,
We have been experiencing some issues with an installation that is utilising RSLinx OPC to serve data to Wonderwares Factory Suite OPC DAS IOServer.
Tags were configured to be N9:20/15, but when viewing the status of them in the DAS monitor, they were displayed as -1, which in my limited knowledge is not possible for a discrete item.
Wonderwere agent has said that they recall an issue maybe with the way that RSLinx reports the data to the IOServer, and depending on when it was done etc, sometimes gets confused and reports the wrong data type. Whilst this sounds semi-possible, is still a bit of a crock as the IOServer should report an error under that scenario for a discrete item.
They have asked to check if the latest version of RSLinx is installed, the installed version is 2.54.00.11 CPR9 STR1.
I think that a later version is out now, is it worth updating it, or does it sound like a IOServer issue?
Has anyone heard of this type of issue before? The other thing that is behaving oddly, is that it seems that the variable address's are getting over-ridden with the last value, if I try & change the value of address, it gets over-ridden with the last value.
What I don't know, is this the IOServer or RSLinx OPC doing this?
