UDS connectivity to Remote RSlinx hosts

40 Views

I have a UDS instances running, ... with everything set, it reads/writes to PLCs as expected.

As per our current setup UDS and RSlinx are one the same server/host. Hence, when I configure an instance, I obviously select a server with "localhost" followed by RSlinx OPC server. I save and start the service, and it works good.

However, when I try to set the server to point to an RSlinx instance on another machine (not localhost), it lets me save the UDS instance without any errors, but doesn't start the service. It simply seems to try to connect and then giveup in a few seconds. No error.

Am I missing anything here ?

Is UDS meant to connect to localhosts only ?

Does that mean that UDS has to be installed on every RSlinx server ?
