Finally saw it - 'Logmein' to home, watched in from there. Something is weird. Analysis of the whole program is probably next.
Watching the counter increment to right around 340700 the accum value goes back down to about 340200. Very consistent.
I would look for something else writing to the accum value.
Mickey, Are you sure your player isn't in repeat mode?

Bradal,
If that is representative of the actual code and the counter increments from SYSTEM_100_MS_TIMER but won't increment from Local:3:I.Data.5 then I would check Local:3:I.Data.5. The PLC is not going to be selective and choose to ignore one and not the other. Either the input is not working or some instruction somewhere is clearing Local:3:I.Data.5 - either way the problem has to lie there. Don't forget that that CLX IO is asynchronous to the PLC scan.
This is not the case, it increments from the hard input, the 100ms timer is just to speed up the process of waiting so it isn't an 8 hour video.
Also the value does actually change, according the RSVIEW32, we see the value decrement by some random number every week or every 3 days...then pop back. The operator keeps detailed information on the flow total value from each meter, and it definitely does decrement randomly. I am now logging these values in the HMI, originally just to see if there is a pattern, but now just for information in the future if needed.
Thanks
I am doing this over a remote connection via PCanywhere.
