Hi Dan!

Wow that was fast - thanks!

Makes sense to me,  I'll give it a try after you have uploaded.

Here's the message I first sent to Mark when I first saw the errors in ECS.
Mark's reply, which follows, pointed me in the right direction for
troubleshooting.


Cheers!

Hi Mark!
Tonight I found many of the following errors in my ECS.LOG:
O 08/25  1:02 AM:S_DDE_CLN-CT1 (DDE err#4009:Not processed) (Item "Redac
#1")
O 08/25  1:02 AM:S_DDE_CLN-CT1 (DDE err#4009:Not processed) (Item "Redac
#1")
O 08/25  1:02 AM:S_DDE_CLN-CT1 (DDE err#4009:Not processed) (Item "Redac
#1")
O 08/25  1:02 AM:S_DDE_CLN-CT1 (DDE err#4009:Not processed) (Item "Redac
#1")
O 08/25  1:02 AM:S_DDE_CLN-CT1 (DDE err#4009:Not processed) (Item "Redac
#1") etc.
Upon further investigation, I have found that these errors occur while ACE
is updating the status of ECS' items it is monitoring.  In my setup, that's
about 300 items.  Oddly enough, Redac #1 (PLC-IFC-2C/Station:0) is not being
monitored by ACE.
So, what does this error mean?
Cheers!

Michael, The redac is unrelated - I failed to service (log) the error, and
so it "fell into" other logic. I corrected this in the beta that I am about
to upload. It will at least report the real item invlolved.
The error means that the client is not responding to a state-change packet.
