Not sure, why you believe this is a bug?!

It goes green also when it tried to connect. When this fails, it goes back to red as it is disconnected.
This repeats, as it tries to reconnect again after some time.

As such, this fact indicates, that the connection could not be established. Eg. The ProppFrexx address is wrong or the server on the ProppFrexx side is not enabled.

So try to clear the address field in the GPIO client entirely. As then the address will be tried to detect automatically.
And also check, if you have enabled the GPIO Ext. Service in the general settings of ProppFrexx.
And also validate the TCP/IP password set in ProppFrexx.

OK, If i dont remember what the password is, can i change it from PFOA without creating other issues ??

note: if configuation file was corrupt could it have change the adress and/or the password ???
