Hi,

The **context** is related to the following ticket which was submitted earlier: **AddHttps** ://support.inductiveautomation.com/hc/en-us/requests/125394 (Not able to provide it as a link, hence replace AddHttps with https to read the content).

**Proposed Solution in 2024:** Wait and use 8.3 BETA.

I have **downloaded** the 8.3 BETA, but I am still facing the issue when I connect the OPC UA Joining System Simulator. The **Result object is showing just Binary Stream.**

**Refer** to the **simulator** links below.

**Steps to Reproduce:**  
Connect to the OPC\_UA\_IJT\_Server\_Simulator\_New\_RC\_1.01.0.zip given in the above/below links.  
**Read** to the **variable** : **ns=1;s=TighteningSystem/ResultManagement/Results/Result** from Ignition OPC Tags.

**Strange Observation:** The Ignition 8.3 BETA is working with OPC 40450-1 **version 1.00.0 NodeSet** but NOT working with OPC 40450-1 **version 1.01.0** NodeSet where there is NO change in the **ResultDataType**.

- **OPC UA Joining 40450-1 v1.00.0 Simulator:** [https://github.com/umati/UA-for-Industrial-Joining-Technologies/blob/f412969b395edcc88fe5f1e7e2a4f8be05b8a315/OPC\_UA\_Servers/Release2/\*\*OPC\_UA\_IJT\_Server\_Simulator.zip](https://github.com/umati/UA-for-Industrial-Joining-Technologies/blob/f412969b395edcc88fe5f1e7e2a4f8be05b8a315/OPC_UA_Servers/Release2/**OPC_UA_IJT_Server_Simulator.zip)\*\*  
\*\*This is working where Result extension data content is readable. The same is **NOT**  **working** with **below** where there is **NO**  **change** to **ResultDataType**.
- **OPC UA Joining 40450-1 v1.01.0 Simulator:** [https://github.com/umati/UA-for-Industrial-Joining-Technologies/blob/f412969b395edcc88fe5f1e7e2a4f8be05b8a315/OPC\_UA\_Servers/Release2/\*\*OPC\_UA\_IJT\_Server\_Simulator\_New\_RC\_1.01.0.zip](https://github.com/umati/UA-for-Industrial-Joining-Technologies/blob/f412969b395edcc88fe5f1e7e2a4f8be05b8a315/OPC_UA_Servers/Release2/**OPC_UA_IJT_Server_Simulator_New_RC_1.01.0.zip)\*\*  
\*\* The ONLY difference in **1.01.0 version** is:  
\*\* It uses **latest** OPC **1.05.04** NodeSet and some new methods and event types are defined in the IJT Base NodeSet. **But, no change to the ResultDataType structure mentioned.**

Thansk a lot in advance.

Best regards,  
Mohit Agarwal

I know this because of your support ticket: you upgraded from 8.1, which means the existing OPC UA connection you had will continue to use the legacy datatype dictionary mechanism.

Go edit this OPC UA connection and uncheck that option. Your result types should be supported after that.

Thanks Kevin,  
I deleted old connections and trying to create new connections. The new setup has security options as Required and throws Password not configured error.

What password do we provide here as my OPC UA Server does NOT have any username password support?

Click "None".

Don't touch the one for the KeyStore.

Thanks a lot for your quick response and help.  
I am able to read the structure data completely now after creating a new connection.
