Error connecting with IDS Driver

When trying to use the IDS interface of the TOP Server, the error "Unable to load driver image table" appears.

The problem is that a file named <node name>.ids is missing. This file must reside in the PDB subfolder of the iFIX custom project folder:

Projects\<projectname>\PDB\<nodename>.ids

The file does not contain any data - its name alone lets iFIX associate drivers with nodes. iFIX normally creates this file automatically, but it can be done manually. To do so, create an empty document in Notepad and save it using the appropriate name. The iFIX application must be restarted for these changes to take effect.

If this does not resolve the issue, re-install the TOP Server to reset the registry setting that iFIX is looking for to make the connection.
