Using Rlinx 2.5 we were testing connectivity from the PLC's to experion using scada. There are three channels configured for each plc on the same experion server. When we disconnect completely one plc, its channel fails (RSlinx can not communicate with the plc) and the channel in experion fails. However after a few minutes the other 2 channels fail as well. The rslinx logs show that they lose communication too although they are connected. PLC are logix5000 processor types. So casically when on plc fails (power shutdown or network loss) the other channels fails as well. This is not making sense and would appreciate any input or feedback to this issue. More information: when the primary network is disconnected, rslinx fails over to the other network as the alias configurations are setup in rslinx (ver 2.5) and vice versa but when both network cables are disconnected its channel fails as well as the other.
the rslogix ver is 17
Any input would be greatly appreciated
The network is FTE and the plcs are connected using cisco indutrial switchs with @Mbps hrottling(maybe this could cause it)
