Why "Lost ActiveX connection with LabVIEW server"

Hello,
i´m running a custom LV-OperatorInterface in LV8.21 which executes a TestStand-Sequence.
When starting the LV-OperatorInterface then TestStand 3.5 is also started with the Model-Sequence and two ParallelSequences which execute "in a new execution".

Inside TestStand i´m running LV-Teststeps. The Teststaps get their parameter-information via ActiveX over the Sequence-Context.
Now i see that sometimes that there seem to be a problem with ActiveX in the ParallelSequences and i have errors like this:

-> Error Code:    -18001
  -> Source:        Error executing substep 'Run'.
Lost ActiveX connection with LabVIEW server. The LabVIEW Adapter will try to reconnect on the next execution attempt.

I only have the error in the two ParallelSequences, never in the normal TestSequence.

When and why does this error happen?

Thx for your help.

Probably there are problems with the settings on your system.

If this doesn't help: Are there other error messages that occur? When does the error occur?

Any more informations about your system and your procedures are helpful.
