Oblouky (Customer) asked a question.
I have two C-More micro screens/Click PLCs with unique IP addresses running identical programs on two machines and when I added them to a StrideLinx LAN, data entered on one screen is now showing up on the other screen in the same field.
Is it possible that using the same tag names in both programs is causing the crosstalk? I thought the IP addresses would solve that issue.
Double check and make sure the C-more's are not writing to the same IP address.
Thanks for the reply, that's my first task today.
I am back on site and verified the IP addresses are not the same. I renamed the device in one of the panels from DEV001 to DEV002 to eliminate that as a possibility. After talking to the operator I found out it happened once and as a precaution I had them disconnect the machine from the network. They reloaded the data to the second machine and it operated normally. They subsequently plugged both machines back into the network and it has not happened again. Still a bit of a mystery.
