Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

One of the arguments provided to a method is not valid.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

The component is not licensed for the operation requested.
Remarks
The "Read" operation reads a value of an OPC-UA attribute and stores it into the mapping source. Only mappings of type OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.LiveMapping.UAClientDataMapping that include OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.LiveMapping.UADataMappingOperations.Read in their OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.LiveMapping.UAClientDataMapping.Operations are affected; other mappings are ignored.
