I have a panelview 550 being used in conjunction with a micrologix 1500 to determine alarm conditions and display alarm messages.
At the end of the main program ladder I have a line of code:
IF N12:0 <Panelview page monitor tag> EQU N12:1 <Panelview page control tag> THEN MOV 0 INTO N12:1
I imagined that this would return the panelview page control to the panelview at the end of each program scan, which it does most of the time.
Every few days i get an error message on the panelview "Remote device has screen control", and when I check the code it N12:0 is not holding the actual page number, and therefore the processor does not return screen control.
Can anyone explain why this might be? Doesn't the panelview update this monitor tag every scan? Is there any way I can prompt it to update?
Thanks
