OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Engine.ComTypes Namespace > _UASmartClientSessionParameters Interface : SessionConnectTimeout Property
A session connect timeout (in milliseconds).
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Property SessionConnectTimeout As Integer
 
'Usage
 
Dim instance As _UASmartClientSessionParameters
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.SessionConnectTimeout = value
 
value = instance.SessionConnectTimeout

Property Value

Unit of measurement is ms.

The default value of this property is 60000.

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.

Remarks

This parameter controls the total time given to the connection process (including endpoint discovery and selection, creating secure channel etc.). If the underlying connection process exceeds the given time, an error occurs and is returned to the caller. Even if this connection process later succeeds, its results will not be used.

In order to obtain or modify this parameter, in the default state (when OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore.Isolated equals to false), access OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Engine.UAClientAdaptableParameters.SessionParameters property of static OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore.AdaptableParameters. If you have set OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore.Isolated to true, you need to access OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Engine.UAClientAdaptableParameters.SessionParameters property of OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore.IsolatedParameters.

The getter method of this property is pure, i.e. it does not have observable side effects.

This member or type is for use from COM. It is not meant to be used from .NET or Python. Refer to the corresponding .NET member or type instead, if you are developing in .NET or Python.
