I don't see a rack layout .. this is just a question based on previous experience .. Is your power supply, for the rack, getting close to capacity? We had some strange, hard to reproduce, and otherwise unexplainable problems with a 17 slot rack that had mostly intelligent cards in it (L73, ...

Thanks Phillip, I got the AOI downloaded, it's installed and running in the lab. It'll do a short run-in over the Xmas break This AOI and the Stratix AOI might be the incentive needed to justify getting Factorytalk View up and running Thanks Michael Lulchak ------------------------------ ...

I forgot to mention, I have asked tech support the question above. Wherever I receive an answer, I'll cross-post the answer. ------------------------------ Michael Lulchak2 ------------------------------

I want to gather diagnostics information so that I can alarm when there is a problem with a cable, a switch port, an SFP, excessive noise on a link, and anything else that may interrupt the PLC IO system. The IO system is what I would describe as 'full PRP, not redundant IO'. There is a 1756-EN2TP ...

To the person who moved the discussion to the correct forum - how do I navigate this site and figure out where it got moved to? It seems silly to have to search for your own post :( ------------------------------ Michael Lulchak2 ------------------------------

I went through the documents. The examples are just too small to give me information on tieing 10 pairs of redundant Stratix together, where the redboxes should be, port limitations, et al. My IO does not all live in the same MCC room as the ControlLogix processor. I think I need a companion document, ...

I'm looking for a YES/NO on PRP configuration, so if Integrated Architecture Builder is what I need to use, I'll download it and try it. ------------------------------ Michael Lulchak2 ------------------------------

EDIT: moved to Networks community -FL Is there design software, Rockwell or otherwise, that allows you to draw up your network and shows the limits on various Stratix switches for PRP? - I read that some (most?) of the Stratix switches only allow 4 ports for Redbox ... that seems odd on the face of ...

Just making sure that you have the software configuration for the IF4 set to voltage as well as the dip switch set to Open for those channels. It just cost me a couple of hours to realize that I had changed configuration on the dip switches but had forgotten to change the software configuration and re-download. ...
