RE: 1756-EN2T at 100 percent CPU on its webpage, FactoryTalk View SE clients time out

What's the historian polling at, and how many tags did it add? Same question for the Kepware box, poll rate and tag count. Before we blame the module ...

RE: KEPServerEX reads S7-1200 tags as Bad quality, channel shows connected

Poll rate on those tags? And is the Windows firewall on the server box open for 102 outbound, or off for the test?

RE: Ignition historian grew 40 GB in a month from 300 tags, every analog logs every scan

Applied that to the 60 worst tags by row count. Growth dropped from 1.3 GB a day to about 200 MB. Still more than I'd like, and the remote sites are s...

RE: PanelView Plus 7 on the cartoner went slow the day Ignition was connected to the L33ER

Not the switch. 6,800 tags every 100 ms is 68,000 tag values a second off that embedded port. The driver packs them into far fewer packets than that, ...

RE: Motor current into a CompactLogix via CTs for predictive maintenance, is it worth it

Historian side first. Can you log twelve tags at 1 s and keep them a year, and do you have the line state and product code as tags alongside? Current ...

RE: Modbus TCP through a serial gateway, exception 0B or no reply from every slave

What poll rate on the meter, and is its serial setting the same as the analyzers? A gateway port does one baud and parity for the whole RS485 chain. C...

RE: Two hundred low flow and low pressure alarms on every plant startup, operators ack blind

Two jobs, different sizes. The small one you can do this week: every process alarm gets a condition, the equipment it belongs to is running, plus a de...

RE: KEPServerEX 6 browse from Ignition takes ten minutes, 46,000 tags, one core pegged

Then the browse is walking 44,000 nodes nobody wants, and KEP builds that tree per request, so you pay for it every time a client opens it. Not a cach...

RE: Plant kWh total in a CompactLogix went to minus 2 billion after 24 days

That's the DINT ceiling. 2,147,483,647 is the biggest number a 32 bit signed integer holds. Yours was counting Wh, not kWh, so at 3.5 MW it got there ...

RE: Modbus TCP through a serial gateway, exception 0B or no reply from every slave

What unit ID is the driver sending to the gateway? It's per device in the SCADA driver settings. Default is 255 for some drivers, 1 for others, and wh...

RE: Ignition historian grew 40 GB in a month from 300 tags, every analog logs every scan

Checked. Pump site tags have about 4 times the rows of a local tag of the same type, and the bursts line up with link drops in the gateway log. So I r...

RE: Ignition 8.1 Logix driver faulted on a 1756-EN2T, CIP connection request error 16#0100

Not the driver. Before anything, how many connections does that EN2T already have open? Two terminals, a historian and a Kepware box is a lot of class...
