When a Modicon 984 loses power why does it lose all of its current data values, returning back to the last saved values? Is there a setting that turns on retentive data or something? I couldn't find anything like that in Proworx32.
If not, is there a way to programatically save the values to nonvolatile memory every hour or so?
I don't know about anyone else, but I see this as a major problem with the Modicon platform, which is also a problem on the newer Unity PLCs (3 calls to Modicon with no resolution yet). By default PLC's should be able to lose power and return right back where they left off, with same setpoints, etc.!
Thanks
