Why does my RemoteConnect project show conflicts and invalid entries after reading from a SCADAPackx70 RTU?

Question

After reading the RemoteConnect program from the SCADAPack 57x or 47x RTU, the program results in configuration conflicts when going online. It shows invalid entries in the object configuration.

Answer

This issue occurs because the project was originally created using an older version of RemoteConnect that allowed invalid names. The current version enforces stricter naming rules and no longer permits these invalid entries.

Solution

To resolve this issue:

1. Export the project to Excel from RemoteConnect.
2. Search and replace all invalid names. For example:
   • Replace PH. with PH_.
3. Import the updated file back into RemoteConnect.
4. Verify that all invalid entries are corrected and configuration conflicts are resolved.
