Hi,
our company has just switched from older Modicon PLCs to S7 (5x317/2x317F) connected over ProfiNET. We use InTouch 9 for the visualisation, which is quite old but our customer did not want to upgrade that part.
We have twelve workstations running InTouch, ten of which running fine. Two however freeze repeatedly after running for a few hours or days. Freeze means that InTouch does not get new data; the computer itself is running fine.
I reinstalled InTouch/SIDirect/Sentinel from scratch already but it's still the same.
My next steps will be to let IT set up one of the boxes from scratch or replace the box completely to see if it might be an OS or a hardware problem. However, this will take a week or so.
So in the meantime, has anyone seen that by chance and knows where to start troubleshooting?
Thanks for reading and regards.
