Details about the S7Plus driver

This chapter describes possible debug levels and error codes of OMS+.

Debug levels

Debug level Description
conn Returns detailed information on the connections

Error messages

The following table provides a list of error codes of the IOMS library. The error codes can be used by the driver and passed to the WinCC OA Log Viewer.

Note:
If only 8 S7Plus connections can be established despite a higher licensed limit, this may be caused by missing administrator privileges, missing registry entries, or an incorrect PC/PG interface (e.g. TCPIP.Auto). Start the project as administrator, confirm the registry update, and use a fixed interface (e.g. TCPIP.1). Typical log messages: "Cannot activate S7DOS licensing, administrator permissions were not granted" or "Cannot activate S7DOS licensing, error 2".
