S7net plus with VIPA PLC #530

Open NickVerboven opened 5 months ago

NickVerboven commented 5 months ago

Hi

I have a .net application (written in C#) that communicates every 2 seconds with a VIPA plc. That application is running in production evironment since 2021 and uses s7netplus release 0.7.0. In the loggings I see that the connection to the plc sometimes is broken. This causes problems while making a batch in production. This issue is known since implementation, but now the problem occurs more often. Is the s7netplus library compatible with a VIPA plc? Is this connection problem (suddenly no connection anymore with the plc) known? In the application 2 plc connections are used: 1 connection for logging that is opend all the time for loggings, 1 connection for starting a production batch (where information comes from MES) that is only opened when the batch is started en closed afterwards. Any help is useful for us.

Thanks
