Hello All,
Trying to troubleshoot a message instruction that’s always worked between two compact logix processors (Both 1769 L32E). I noticed that the message instruction is on a periodic scan rate of 100ms, and there’s an enable bit addressed to the very message instruction to enable it. I noticed the enable XIO bit was always off. When I opened up the MSG instruction, the enable and enable waiting in the configuration Tab was staying on. Obviously this MSG instruction is having issues.
Then I realized under the expandable IO tree on the left side of RSLogix under the 1769-L32E Ethernet Port “Port Hardy” is has a little error beside it and that’s when I opened properties/connection and I see the module fault - Code 16#0204 error. I’ve tried changing ports, restarting networks switches, and even PLC processors with lo luck. It’s strange that there would be a connection issue when I can go online with both processors and ping the controllers with no issue. I’ll tried to attach some pictures for better explanation but this site doesn’t like to upload I phone Photos it seems.
Thanks for any help
