Please note:

For connections via the H1 protocol, the INAT H1 driver is required. The driver is included with versiondog and can be used up to and including Windows Server 2008. If the versiondog server is installed on a computer on which the driver does not work, then either
- a different H1 driver must be installed that works on the server's operating system, or
- the upload must be carried out using an agent via a computer on which the driver is installed
When using the H1 protocol, it is advisable to deactivate the QoS Packet Scheduler on the appropriate network card
When using the H1 protocol, H1 protocols from other manufacturers must be deactivated on the appropriate network card
Please note that the TSAPs must have a length of at least 2 bytes and at most 16 bytes. In order to establish the connection, the TSAPs must match up when viewed crosswise! This means the local TSAP of one system must be the same as the remote TSAP of the other system.
A valid installation of the program PLC-VCOM.EXE by Process-Informatik, version 2.79 or newer, is required.
- The program must be removed from all autostart processes (startup, Task Scheduler etc.).
