OpcLabs.BaseLib.Browsing.BrowseException - exception while browsing - by: micham

Hi,

We got this exception while trying to connect to a local OPC Server (Matrikon OPC DA Tunneller). See below. When connecting with Matrikon OPC Explorer, browsing is possible and there is no error message.

Please advise.

Thank you.
Michael
