We have 2 robot welding cells in the rear of our plant that have just started getting Watchdog timeout faults on the SLC 5/05 CPU's.
"0022: The User Watchdog scan time has been exceeded. In the processor under the Data Files S2 - Status, Scan Times, the following is labeled:
Maximum = the highest scan time recorded, I believe this only resets if you download a new program x1, not sure though it might reset when you go from pro to run.
Average = the average scan time recorded x1
Watchdog = the limit that is set to trigger the error x10"
These cells have been running nonstop for a few years without any problems of this sort.
The cells are connected only through a central M.H. robot that is interfaced through RIO to both cells.
The cells are connected to Robot controllers through RIO and to a WinME Panelview.
I did a search but found nothing similer to this.
Any thoughts?
