Prosys OPC client sdk 3.1.8-580
I have a test setup with 2 opc ua servers that run follow line on the onStatusChange(UaClient uaClient, ServerStatusDataType status)
System.out.println(“>>>>” + deviceId + ” now=” + DateTime.currentTime() + ” Status getCurrentTime=” + status.getCurrentTime() + ” client=” + uaClient.getServerStatus().getCurrentTime() + ” getServerTimeDifference=” + client.getServerTimeDifference() + ” calc diff= ” + (DateTime.currentTime().getTimeInMillis() – status.getCurrentTime().getTimeInMillis()) + ” getStartTime=” + status.getStartTime());

BND cvcn is based on Unified Automation toolkit
DkFTUA2 is using the Rockwell FT Gateway OPC UA server

Example output:
>>>>BNDcvcn now=2018-11-27 13:25:14.1600000 Status getCurrentTime=2018-11-27 13:25:14.1586923 client=2018-11-27 13:25:14.1586923 getServerTimeDifference=-2 calc diff= 3 getStartTime=2018-11-22 10:46:00.4127100
>>>>DkFTUA2 now=2018-11-27 13:25:14.9890000 Status getCurrentTime=2018-11-13 12:24:48.8214507 client=2018-11-13 12:24:48.8214507 getServerTimeDifference=-1213226168 calc diff= 1213226168 getStartTime=2018-11-13 12:24:48.8214507

As you can see for DkFTUA2 the getServerTimeDifference is very big and the getCurrentTime is same as getStartTime!

But when I look to DkFTUA2 via OPCClients nodeid i=2258 (status current time) the value is matching current time.

Any idea what could case of these different value that are returned by onStatusChange event?

Hi,

There are two possible sources for that value. The the server implementation must keep them in sync.

A) The ServerStatus node’s (i=2256) directly. The value is a ServerStatusDataType Structure which contains all the data in the subnodes of that node (a lot’s of Structure nodes behave like this).
B) CurrentTime node (i=2258) that is directly below the ServerStatus node.

The UaClient prefers A, if it cannot read that it will read the individual components instead, which includes B.

I recommend reporting this bug to the server vendor.
