Hi Guys, We have a Redlion being used as a protocol converter between a Schneider Quantum and Rockwell Micrologix ( I think) . It seems to work OK for a period of time and then it locks up. We can detect from the SCADA that it has locked up because the status we see doesn't make sense. When we look into the PLC's we see that some of the data is getting thru intermittently buut the majority of data is not being updated. Cycling the data on the Redlion usually restores comms. The last two times that we have seen this behavior was after heavy rain. I am not certain but it looks as if the heavy rains cause some form of a fault in the network (multi-mode fibre/ethernet) and oncethis occurs the redlion somehow gets itself into a state that it can't recover from. Currently the comms in the redlion is scheduled to run as often as possible. Any idea's on how to a confirm or dispel my suspicions or b get the redlion to reset itself once comms has locked up ? Thanks
