Hello,

is it normal to not receive DataChange notifications when the same value is written to the server?
When i’m writing the same value to a variable to the server, the source/server timestamp doesn’t update
and we can’t recgonize that the value was written. We don’t know if the client is still alive.

Is this expected behaviour?

I couldn’t find if that is normal, so any clarification on this would be of great help.
Thank you!

Best regards,
Kevin

Hi,

That is the default behaviour of OPC UA, unless you have set a DataChangeFilter with DataChangeTrigger STATUS_VALUE_TIMESTAMP (1.04 Part 4 section 7.12.2). By default the SDK’s MonitoredDataItems do not set a filter, therefore you will get only “STATUS_VALUE” changes, i.e. only if the StatusCode or the actual Value changes.

You can set it via MonitoredDataItem.setDataChangeFilter(DataChangeFilter).

DataChangeFilter filter = new DataChangeFilter();
filter.setTrigger(DataChangeTrigger.StatusValueTimestamp);
filter.setDeadbandType(UnsignedInteger.valueOf(DeadbandType.None.getValue()));
