Issue: OPC Client Displays the Status OPC_NOCONFIG

Issue

The OPC client displays the status OPC_NOCONFIG.

Cause 1

The gateway server/Gateway Management Console located on a different computer than the client has not yet been started.

Solution 1

Start the gateway server/Gateway Management Console manually from the folder ...\Windows\SysWOW64\Gateway.exe as the OPC server can only start the gateway server/Gateway Management Console automatically if it is located on the same computer.

It is a good practice to add the gateway server/Gateway Management Console to the autorun folder of Windows.
