Morning all, I've got an issue with a plc5/60 processor that keeps losing the program everytime the panel is powered down.
When the panel is powered up again, the processor led is red and steady (indicating major error) and the program is gone (processor shows default on rs linx).This fault has only occurred recently, the processor etc has ran happily for the last 3 years. Reloading the program is no hassle and the processor runs quite happy again, until the next time the power is off!.
The battery has been replaced for a new one and i've checked the processor and cards are seated properly, supply to the rack is good etc etc.
I suspect the processor is on its way out, but i'm wondering if there are any more checks i can do before swapping the processor out?
Any advice on something i may have missed?
Cheers.
Bolty.
