Why the driver does not communicate to any devices of ADAM OPC Server? | |||
---|---|---|---|
Solution:
If the driver loads and starts but you are not getting any information for your devices, examine the statistics in the AOA I/O Driver Power Tool for information about the driver's current state. Start at the highest level of the driver statistics:
1. Select the I/O driver icon from the AOA I/O Driver Power Tool's Tree Browser and click the Statistics button in the Run-time toolbar. The I/O Driver Statistics display in the Power Tool.
2. If you see errors, examine the channel statistics to find which channel(s) has the problem device(s).
3. Examine the device(s) statistics as well. The device statistics may help to narrow your search.
If you have multiple devices and the driver is not communicating with any of them, you most likely have one of the following problems:
- You have a problem with your cable.
- You have the wrong settings in your channel properties. Examine the channel baud rate, parity, stop bits, and data bits properties.
If you are receiving error numbers in the device statistics Errors field
- Look up the error numbers in the table provided below. These errors are returned from the hardware. If they are not listed in the table, consult your hardware protocol manuals. Hardware protocol manuals usually list the error number and a description of the problem.
- Examine the station number in the device properties.
