I?m experiencing the same issue with dropping debugger sessions.?
One CP4 was installed 2 years ago. I?m servicing this unit remotely via VPN connection and always had the VPN in mind as a possible cause. But it also happened when i was locally on-site recently.
For a second CP4 i?m currently doing the programming, it?s the same behaviour. I had it sitting in my lab for the initial programming with everything connect to the same LAN and now it?s installed at the client and i?m connecting to it via wifi.
Both have the same behaviour: debugging session drops between 2 minutes and 5 minutes. Sometimes it doesn?t even start after connecting.
Sometimes it just looks like it?s frozen and then all of a sudden feedback comes back.
One important thing: the connection itself does not drop - Toolbox status is always "connected". It?s just that the signals are not updated.
Another thing: trace and print statements continue to come through, just no signal updates.
Does anyone have recommendations for a 3rd party debugger? I wanted to give the C5 debugger a try, but since the trial version is limited to 5 minutes, that?s not sufficient to verify if it has the same issues or not.
Cheers,?
Thorsten
