With the DLL gbccm132.dll in version 2.11.x (and higher) it is necessary to call a reset-function to reestablish a lost connection or if the PLC was restarted. The current implementation of the Bachmann Driver does so. It is no longer required to restart the ZENON-runtime. After a maximum of 50 seconds the connection is reestablished. Empirically measured with a Bachmann PLC.
Please note: It is recommended not to copy any of the DLLs or components provided by Bachmann into the COPA-DATA installation directories, because any required DLL is located in System32 resp. SysWOW64. Manually copying DLLS may lead to inappropriate combinations that may cause unexpected behaviour.
