I am recieving the following error: "PLC Communications Server has encountered a problem and has to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. " Has anyone seen this before? Where should I be looking for a solution? Here is what is connected to my networked setup so far(I will be adding more similar components in the future): (2)DL450 CPU (2)H4-ECOM (2)H4-ERM One H4-ERM has (5)T1H-EBC Slaves, the other H4-ERM has (3)T1H-EBC Slaves. One ECOM and one ERM each is connected to its own ethernet hub which in turn is connected to my system network. I am programming with DirectSoft 4.0 (build 25) and my HMI is Lookout Direct 4.5.1.19. Thank you in advance.

    I 've had the error occur quite often lately myself, but not in the past week or so. I figured it was just my computer since I upgraded to a new machine. I also installed DirectSoft 5.1 at the same time.
