Hi everyone,

We have the UR10e and in our application the robot should exchange data with a Beckhoff PLC.  In our case, the PLC play a role of server and the robot will play the role of client. The problem is that when I use the URscript command socket_open("192.168.0.9",5000, "plc"), it always returns false as a result. has anyone had this problem before?

thanks in advance
