**Property value**

[Int32](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.int32)

The time in milliseconds counted from the start of the reconnect. A value equals zero indicates that the client keeps attempting until an attempt succeeds. The default value is zero.

**Exceptions**

| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| [ArgumentOutOfRangeException](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.argumentoutofrangeexception) | The value is less than zero. |

**Remarks**

When the time has elapsed, the client changes to [Disconnected](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.client.opcclientstate/#disconnected) and raises [BreakDetected](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.client.opcclient/breakdetected). It does not reconnect again on its own; [Connect](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.client.opcclient/connect) establishes a new connection. The value has no effect while [ReconnectInterval](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.client.opcclient/reconnectinterval) is zero.
