Connectivity issue from a server to Client OPC

Dear All,

 

Now I am trying to connect the RGA directly to my system.

In past i connected it by the switch with port Number 7009 and TCP  connection port 2080 it was working properly but when i am trying to connect it directly to my PC it shows connectivity with the RGA only but not with the Main labview program, i attached couple of picture please help me in solving this problem.

Hi Taufeey,

 

Can you clarify what the RGA is and what you mean by "it shows connectivity with the RGA only but not with the Main LabVIEW program"?

 

Presumably, connecting to your device is not working in LabVIEW, but it is working in some fashion? More detail is (almost) always preferable to brevity. Thanks in advance.

RDA stands for Residual Gas Analyzer, or QMG - 220 Prisma Plus device which basically works as a server I set its IP address 192.168.10.110 with the device name and Mac address. On visual basic, I created a client program after that I make Labview as my client with IP address 127.0.0.1 over port 2080 and my PC Ip is 192.168.10.10 with DNS 192.168.10.1

When I am trying to make an attempt for connecting Server(QMG 220)  with LabVIEW that time Server shown its connectivity but LabVIEW main program or client not giving any response.

Are you able to revert to the switch method, since it seemed to work?

 

Are you able to ping the server from the command line on the computer? Does the VBA client connect just fine? Are you using any additional toolkits (Datalogging and Supervisory Control, etc) beyond the built-in LabVIEW VIs to facilitate this connection?

Please find the attachment where QMS-Server-Edit.exe is the visual basic code for creating a server and labview is operating as a client where 192.168.100.13 is the QMG 220 server Ip and 127.0.0.1:2080 is the client ip and port and system or pc ip is 192.168.100.107 I cant make a link between server and client.

 

Please help
