I noticed on most of the online PLC's in our plant there is a heartbeat, which is basically a MSG instruction that is sent at a timed interval and then returned by another PLC.
My question is what is the purpose of this on SLC/MLX family of controllers?
Do modern CLX controllers need this logic as well?
