I have an issue with the program I have written. I have a Horner Micro OCS 7 connecting to a Fanuc robot via modbus. When I am running it I see the modbus communication on the robot run just fine. It has started stalling out at the same point. When the Cycle_Start(line 20 rung 14 in the program) signal is sent to the robot it appears that all communication stalls out. I have a heartbeat signal set up on line 22 rung 16. While it is running normally I see that heartbeat signal but when it goes to send this cycle_start signal that stalls out as well.
Sometimes it will come back to life and send the signal. This problem started out where this would happen once in a while and it would come back to life and keep communicating. This problem has become ever more or an issue.
Any hints or help would be great. I have seen some links to modbus sniffers but I am not the most well versed in modbus comms. I followed a set of instructions written for setting up these comms.
