Hey Everyone,
We have a Micrologix 1400 (1766-L32BXB) with a Panelview 800 7" Screen, the Micrologix also has a 1762-IQ16 Input Card and a 1762-OB16 Output card attached to it.
On the screen, we have a page for Inputs and Outputs each with Multi-State Indicators for On / Off / Error. However, when online the multistate indicators that read I/O from an external card do not function (they stay Red or 0), the I/O from the chassis functions Red (0) / Green (1) as expected. I verified this issue existing with another machine that has a matching set up so it doesn't seem to be hardware related.
The tags for the chassis have an address of "I:0/0" and for the card, I use "I:1/0" for the first spot on the card, Controller in both cases on the Tag screen is the named "PLC-1". Also while testing these outputs are on for an extended period of time so its not like a screen refresh issue.
I saw a reference to this issue in 2016 but no follow-ups so I wasn't sure if this is known or what I am missing.
