Hi everyone,

I have a Allen Bradley PLC using Logix Driver and it goes to IDLE periodically. Is there a way to prevent that?

I'm using Ignition 8.1.45.

Thank you.

IA will probably want a Wireshark PCAP of that.

Also check if anyone is editing the PLC when you get that--IA's driver is slow to recover from that if there are many tags to rebrowse.
