Rslogix/Compaclogix system
While monitoring a liquid transfer from a flow meter and using RSLogix on-line to watch what was happening, I noticed periodically on the "Task Properties"/Monitor tab, the Scan Time is normally running about 5 to 7 ms per scan and the totalizer updates at each scan as it should. Periodically during the 20 min transfer, the scan monitor scan seems to freeze for 2 to 3 cycles. The totalizer freezes during this time and when the scan starts back up again, the totalizer does not seem to update to what would have transferred during this time. It just starts up where it left off. This seems to be causing too much product to the transferred.
Can someone explain what might be causing the scans to stop and how to fix?
Thanks
