Background:
One iFix Server connect to one iClient. IGS is used as the OPC server (rebadged Kepware). The client would lose communication from time to time and even when it's working the communication seems flaky. Ping from the client machine to server seems fine and Proficy Historian client on the client machine also works fine. All other type of communication seems good.
I'm a bit lost on what my next step should be. I'm not sure how exactly a iClient take to the SCADA server. I'm assuming it's talking to the OPC server on the server machine?
- So would be using a OPC test client (like OPC Explorer from Matrikon) be useful?
- If I tap in with wireshark, what would I be looking for?
