I have a Siemens CP2433 ASI Master module that is acting strange... The module normally scans 30 slaves, and each slave appears to scan without issue. However, every few scan cycles, the +10. +20, and +30 LEDs on the module illuminate at the same time, and the "Config Error" LED illuminates as well. After this, the module will scan normally for a cycle or two, but the "Config Error" and +10, +20, +30 simultaneous illumination again occurs.
If I stop the PLC and place the CP2433 in "Config" mode, the slaves scan normally, even after 10 minutes of observation. If I switch to "Protected" mode. the scan still is normal. After the PLC is started, the odd pattern described above returns.
I have reseated the CP2433 in the backplane, and then replaced the CP2433 without any change. The ASI power and Bus connections at the module are good, and the ASI voltage is 30 Volts. Any ideas what to do from here?
