A reboot may be necessary in order to restart the runtmie after closing the runtime on a Windows CE device when the OPCUA32 OPC UA client driver is used

Summary

When the zenon runtime using the OPCUA32 OPC UA client driver is closed on a Windows CE device, it may be required to restart the device in order for the zenon runtime application to start successfully again.

Description

When the zenon runtime using the OPCUA32 OPC UA client driver is closed on a Windows CE device, it may be required to restart the device in order for the zenon runtime application to start successfully again.

Solution

An issue has been addressed in the OPCUA32 client driver where closing the runtime was not successfully able to close the driver. This caused the runtime to continue running in the background and only a device reboot would allow normal restart of the runtime. Now the driver closes correctly and the runtime can be restarted without a reboot of the Windows CE device.
