Today I wanted to test the widget at a customer site because I’m unable to read the NodeIDs using my OPC client. I added the widget to the visualization, set up the server alias, and transferred the project. It is an AS 4.12 project, and I used the frm 5.24 branch.
Unfortunately, the visualization only shows my local OPC-UA server, not the actual customer server. Am I doing something wrong?
Oh nice!
I may need to add something on the widget to display that we use the local opcua server as fallback!
I’m glad someone is giving a try in real case!
I would be glad to hear about your feedback!
@Florent: Thanks again for your widget; it really helped me out today. I couldn’t establish a connection with my client because the customer had given me the wrong information regarding the NodeIDs. I hadn’t been told about the quotation marks, which is why it wasn’t working. Thanks to the OPC-UA browser, I was able to identify the issue, and my client is now running perfectly!
It’s a real shame that there’s no way to bypass the server alias. This means the project has to be recompiled for every customer if problems arise on-site.
Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad it helped you today!
Yeah unfortunately, we can’t change or declare new server alias during runtime
You maybe can create a product request to your local support team, but I’m not sure it will be valided ^^’
Hi @waldemar.salzsehler@Christian_Schulte
I’ve updated the main and 5.24, so now you can browse structure variable and array variable!
There is no indicator, you have to click on the variable to try browse it!
