I am communicating with a Kinetix 300, a Powerflex 525, and a Micrologix 1100 via Ethernet/IP using MSG instructions. They are all linked through a Stratix 2000 un-managed hub.
Everything works fine...most of the time. Every once in a while I will get a MSG error. Often happens on startup. I have written the logic so that it will continue to attempt communication until the error goes away. It usually does after a few minutes. Sometimes the error is while trying to communicate with the Powerflex but more often it is with the Kinetix 300.
I even tried to eliminate the hub and just direct connect the ML1100 to the Kinetix 300 with an extra cable that I had. Still got the random error. Again it corrected itself but I really can't have that happen for no apparent reason.
I know that you don't know the exact situation but I wondered if someone might have an idea about what it might be?
