Dear All, i am trying to connect a 3rd party software to DeltaV opc server, while the data gets collected in OPC client as requested for some time, the DeltaV OPC server seems to froze and throws an error in the client " RPC Connection is disconnected".
My questions are : Can DeltaV OPC server handle Asynchronous and Synchonous reads. If so why is the OPC server hanging up after a period of time. The problem seems to go away once i restart the OPC client application, this informs me that either the groups created in the OPC server are not handled or killed and only get accumulated( garbage management) . My understanding and research suggests that the OPC group objects accumulation is overcranking the DeltaV OPC licensed tag count, as such the OPC server freezes and can only come back alive after a restart. The restart i suspect is killing all the existing groups, hence there would be no issues until the groups get accumulated.
Somebody please enlighten about this issue.
Thank you
