Hallo,

Do have any idea what can we change in the settings of the KEPWare server to solve this issue?

Many thanks

Thank you.

You are actually using OPC "Classic", not OPC UA.
But the error handling looks correct in principle.

I believe that this is a server problem. If you disagree, then the way to decide it would be to put an OPC Analyzer between the client and server, and check the captured communication. Some more related info:
- kb.opclabs.com/How_to_use_OPC_Analyzer
- kb.opclabs.com/Collecting_information_for_troubleshooting

Let me know if you want to proceed this way.

Best regards

Hallo,

Please see fowing code:
public TKSY.Types.OPC.Tag_Info_Tag  WriteTagValue(string tagName, object value)
        {
            try
            {
                if (_OPCActive == false)
                    return new TKSY.Types.OPC.Tag_Info_Tag();
 
                TAG_Info item = _TagInfoList.Find(x => x.TAG.TAGFullName.Equals(tagName));
 
                if (item != null)
                {
                    if (item.TAG.VtgValue == null)
                        item.TAG.VtgValue = new DAVtq(value);
 
                    item.TAG.VtgValue.Value = value;
                    if (item.TAG.IsArray == true)
                    {
                        // check data length of writting array. If not the same length, then Write() will cause an exception
                        if (item.TAG.ArrayLength != ((Array)value).GetUpperBound(0) + 1)
                        {
                            if (OnLoggingHandler != null)
                                OnLoggingHandler(this, new LoggingArgs(LogLevel.Error, string.Format("Tag write -> tag=<{0}> OPC array length=<{1}>, writing data length=<{2}>", tagName, item.TAG.ArrayLength, ((Array)value).GetLowerBound(0))));
 
                            return null;
                        }
                    }
 
                    _easyDaClient.WriteItemValue(_ServerAdress, _ServerClass, tagName, value);
 
                    if (OnLoggingHandler != null)
                        OnLoggingHandler(this, new LoggingArgs(LogLevel.OPC, string.Format("Tag write -> tag=<{0}>, Value=<{1}>", tagName, OPCTypeConverter.GetStringValueFromArray(item.TAG))));
 
                    return item.TAG;
                }
                else
                {
                    if (OnLoggingHandler != null)
                        OnLoggingHandler(this, new LoggingArgs(LogLevel.OPC, string.Format("Tag write -> tag=<{0}> unkown / not find in internal list.", tagName)));
                }
            }
            catch (OpcException oex)
            {
                if (OnLoggingHandler != null)
                    OnLoggingHandler(this, new LoggingArgs(LogLevel.Exception, string.Format("Error during OPC WriteItemValue tag=<{0}>, value=<{1}>", tagName, value), oex, ExceptionType.OpcException));
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                if (OnLoggingHandler != null)
                    OnLoggingHandler(this, new LoggingArgs(LogLevel.Exception, string.Format("Error during OPC WriteItemValue tag=<{0}>, value=<{1}>", tagName, value), ex, ExceptionType.Exception));
            }
            return null;
        }

3. How are you doing handling of possible errors from the "write" call? Please supply the relevant piece of code.

Hallo,

1) We are using OPC UA.
2) The method is WriteItemValue().
3) We don't get any errors, even the write function executes succefull, as can see in the log file. But only sometimes the value of the tag doesn't change.

Many thanks in avanced.
Best regards.

Hello,

please provide more details:

1. Are you using OPC UA or OPC Classic?
2. We do not have WriteTagValue() method in our product. Which method are you actually calling?
3. How are you doing handling of possible errors from the "write" call? Please supply the relevant piece of code.
4. Assuming that you are checking for errors, do you get any errors from the "write" call?

Best regards

Hallo,

Seit kurzer Zeit haben wir ein Problem mit dem Schreien von Tags.
Das Problem ist erst aufgetaucht seitdem wir die Steuerung Siemens S7-1500F einsetzen. Mit anderen Steuerungen (z.B. Simatic ET200 und Simatic S7 300) haben wir das Problem nicht.
Wenn wir Werte in den Tags mit WriteTagValue() schreiben, werden sie im kepware Server sporalisch ab und zu nicht geschrieben und somit falsch von der SPS ausgewertet.
Für mehr Detais bitte s ehen Sie den Signalablauf im Anhang.

Wir setzen QuickOPC2018.3 und KEPServer6.6 und die Steuerung Siemens S7-1500F.

Ich würde Ihnen seht danbar wenn sie die Frage umgehend beantworten könnten.

MfG.
Tarik
