So, i found the answer ultimately here:
http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=10000&highlight=ladder+stops+spinning
However what i experienced was that s:2/15 = 1, and that my RS500 would allow me to do work, make edits, so on but the ladder would stop spinning altogether. Trends wouldn't work, simply watching things go on and off would wouldn't work...This was on an SLC 5/04 via DH+. It threw me for a complete loop as to why i could make edits, but not see anything displaying in 'real time'!? changed it to a 0 and immediately got things working correctly.
I do recall now messing with the comms service selection a while back, but it took a long time for the symptom of the ladder spinning to catch up.
What happened...? obviously the processor was able to execute logic or this would have been a bigger issue sooner, but why did changing s:15/2 to a 1 eventually lead to a complete lack of "GUI" updating?
