OPC UA GlobalVars folder visible, but variables are not displayed in UA Expert

[MarkovicMisa (Miroslav Marković)]

Hello,

UA Expert connects successfully to the OPC UA server and I can see the GlobalVars folder, but it is empty.

The variables are already added to OpcUaCsMap.uad and transferred to the controller.

Environment:

- Automation Studio 6.7.0.187

- OPC UA Client/Server package 6.7

- Controller: X20CP0484

Is there any additional step required to expose these variables in the OPC UA address space?

Thank you.

Hi Miroslav,

which automation runtime is being used? Please upgrade to the current runtime, if possible.
You could also try to connect with a user that has Observer or Engineer rights if thats not the case already.

Best regards, Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for your reply.

The controller is currently running Automation Runtime 6.7.5.

In UA Expert I am connecting anonymously. I will also try connecting with a user that has Observer or Engineer rights and report back.

Best regards,

Miroslav

You were right, it was a user rights issue.

I added the UserRoleSystem configuration. After transferring the configuration and reconnecting with UA Expert, the variables became visible and accessible. I can now see and read the variables from the GlobalVars folder.

Thank you for your help!
