MTConnect Listener

Description

An MTConnect Listener is an inbound channel responsible for receiving and processing data from an MTConnect Agent. The client connection to a server setup is configured in a reusable MTConnect Client Configuration Landscape entry.

Start error process: If the channel encounters an error you can connect it in the process model with an error start event to create a process instance for handling that error.

If you leave the error hold time field as blank as the process instance will be created every time an error occurs. If errors occur rapidly, a lot of process instances will be created. You can avoid this by entering a period of time in the field. Any further errors occur within this period, no further error process instance will be created.
