I am working on a well production control panel with a GE VersaMax (IC200CPUE05). There is a power issue on the platform with the solar chargers that is causing the system to loose power every night.
Each day when the system powers back on, the PLC resets all of the operator entered safety setpoints back to 0's. Or for some the setpoints will be set to -50 for the low and 1000 for the high, but they are all reset to some default value.
I fully understand that the power issue needs to be addressed, and I have 2 new solar panels and new batteries on order.
What I dont get is why these variables are reset to default values each time it powers off? shouldnt these be held up in memory by the CPU battery?
