Importing variables for the IEC870 driver is hanging

Importing variables for the IEC870 driver is hanging

When I import variables from the IEC870 driver in the editor, items are received, but then the count of items received stops and the import dialog remains forever at this number until I press cancel.

Normally the import dialog (general interrogation) should dissappear automatically. If this is not the case, this could have several causes:
- a sector has been configured in the driver configuration which is not available at the device
- a timeout has occurred and the general interrogation is re-started by the driver. This however does not affect the display in the import dialog "general interrogation running .. 37 items received"
