Hello ALL.
One strange problem I am facing in my 1769-L33E controller PLC is
All the data coming from DCS (Analog-4-20mA) in my PLC analog input card (1769-IF8) cha no: 4,5,6,7 are fluctuating in the range of +/- 2.5 %
means If I am soucing/DCS is giving 10% output , I can see data hunting in the range of 7.5 to 12.5 % of the full scale range
This is only happening to data coming from DCS. rest all the data coming from transmitters are fine in the same module ch: 0,1,2,3
I also checked mA at DCS with the help of multimeter in series and mA is showing steady, not fluctuating, it is only happening to PLC/HMI display
Wiring is also done as per standard engineering practice where 24V DC is looped by DCS analog output card and not by PLC analog input card for those channel
FYI, same module is having transmitters input in ch:0,1,2,3 and showing fine, Ch: 4,5,6,7 are coming from DCS which are fluctuating.
I there anything need to be taken care in programming of PLC for this or module configuration of IF-8 to be checked?
Please advise.
