I had some recent issues with the analog inputs on an L23E. At first, I did not wire the analog com back to 24 neg and that was a lot of it. However, I have since corrected the wiring issue and the analog counts are much more stable.
Still, even with everything wired correctly, the counts seem to jump a small percent but they still jump and this is at multiple sites. I monitor the mA and VDC (250 ohm resistor in the card) and both are steady and stable while the counts like to jump.
I believe this is a power or grounding issue as the panels are plastic boxes and the electrical was not installed very high quality. A couple of the sites have the correct electrical system and some are more mickey mouse style. I don't have a ground test set but I am trying to reason with the customer.
The noise is on the PLC side not from the instrument itself.
Has anyone else had issues with this processor or similar having counts jump up and down or somewhat unsteady.
Thanks
