Corrected Anomaly in Firmware Revision 30.011

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011

Catalog Numbers:

Frequent requests to update the controller Wall Clock Time in applications that use Integrated Motion over an EtherNet/IP network can cause drive instability.

The following are examples of wall clock time update requests:


The following are examples of drive behavior when the anomaly occurs:




Attribute Value Incorrect with Get System Value Instruction (00169204)

Corrected Anomaly as of Firmware Revision 30.011

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 27.011

Catalog Numbers:

                                     

When used with a Get System Value (GSV) instruction, the PortPhysicalAddressInfo attribute value can be incorrect.

The PortPhysicalAddressInfo attribute is available when you use the TimeSynchronize Class.



Value That Is Outside the Supported WallClockTime Range (00182341, 00182342, 00190288, Lgx00169520)

Corrected Anomaly in:

Known Anomaly First Identified in:

  
  
  
  


When reading or viewing the WCT (WallClockTime) of the controller, the year can show a value of 586XXX (where the XXX is any values). This means that the wallclock value is outside the valid range for EPoch time.

The range of the WCT has been tightened in the controller to 1/1/1970 00:00:00.000...12/31/2069 23:59:59.999. If the controller tries to handle a value outside the defined range, the controller does not apply the new value. It now logs a minor fault, Type 13 Code 21. The fault displays an unknown fault in the RSLogix 5000® software.

graphic

When the fault is logged, the WCT of the controller is set to 1/1/19XX 00:00:00.000, where XX is 81...86. The year corresponds to the Info[0] value for the minor fault.

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 30.011 for these catalog numbers:

When using application code (message instruction) to set the Controller Log feature to automatically write to the removable media when the log is 80% full, the message instruction will error with “undefined or unsupported attribute”. The configuration change will not take effect.

  

Known Anomalies from Previous Releases

These anomalies are from previous releases but are still known in this release.

PI Function Block (Lgx00070832)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of:

 

The PI Function block appears to stop executing as the output does not change and instruction faults are logged.

If the PI instruction is being used in Linear mode, this floating-point equation is used to calculate the ITerm.

graphic

Due to the use of the single-precision floating point values, it may be possible, depending on the values of WLD and KP, for the ITerm value to be small enough, less than 0.0000001, to be lost when adding to the ITermn-1.

For more information regarding the PI instruction, see the Logix5000™ Controllers Advanced Process Control and Drives Instructions User Manual, publication 1756-RM006.

 

Accept Edits (Lgx00122528, Lgx00122622)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.011

Catalog Numbers:

 

When you accept edits in LD, ST, and FBD, the controller will log an 'Online Edit' entry in the controller log. Accepting edits in a SFC routine is done by performing a partial import, resulting in a 'Transaction Commit' entry in the controller log. This is confusing because you can select to mask both entries separately. Selecting only Online edits would cause the Audit Value to change only when FBD, ST, and LD edits are made. SFC online edits would change the Audit Value only if the 'Partial Import Online Transaction Completed' bit was set.

Arithmetic State Flags (Lgx00122480)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.011

Catalog Numbers:

 

  1. When dealing with Floating point numbers, the controller does not truncate denormalized values or -0.0… 0.0.
  2. For an integer divide, when the denominator is 0, the S:N and S:Z are not set.
  3. For the MOD instruction, the S:V is not set if an overflow occurred during the calculation.

Communication with 1769 I/O Modules

Anomaly

Logix Firmware/RSLogix 5000 Software 20.011

Catalog Numbers 1769-L24ER-QB1B, 1769-24ER-QBFC1B, 1769-L27ERM-QBFC1B, 1769-L30ER, 1769-L30ERM, 1769-L30ER-NSE, 1769-L33ER, 1769-L33ERM, 1769-L36ERM


Tasks are the basic scheduling mechanism for executing a program and are created as part of the project and program creation process. In addition to other internal tasks, the CompactLogix controllers have an internal task to provide communication with the 1769 I/O modules. This task executes periodically at the Requested Packet Interval (RPI) selected in the properties of the CompactBus. If the task has not completed before it is time to execute again, a task overlap occurs. This task overlap causes the packaged controller to declare a minor fault of Type = 6 (Task Overlap), Code = 4 (VA task).

You can use various strategies to resolve minor faults due to task watchdog timeout and/or task overlap. For more information, see RSLogix 5000 Online Help ‘ Identifying and Managing Tasks’ . In the case of a minor fault caused by VA task overlap, increase the RPI until the overlap no longer occurs.

Connection via USB Cable (Lgx00122143)

Known Anomaly First Identified As Of Firmware Revision 20.011

Catalog Numbers:

- 5370 CompactLogix L1

- 5370 CompactLogix L2

- 5370 CompactLogix L3


If the controller is connected to a computer via a USB cable and the computer is restarted while the cable remains connected, you must disconnect and reconnect the cable between the controller and computer after the computer restart is complete.

Failure to disconnect and reconnect the cable results in a failure of the computer to recognize the controller when browsing in RSLinx Classic software.

Anomaly Identified As Of Revision 20.011

Catalog Numbers:

- 5370 CompactLogix L2

- 5370 CompactLogix L3


When you use some I/O modules in a 5370 CompactLogix L2 or 5370 CompactLogix L3 control system, they can cause the controller to fail its power-up sequence. When this occurs, the controller remains in a state with the OK status indicator solid red.

- 5370 CompactLogix L1
- 5370 CompactLogix L2
- 5370 CompactLogix L3


IMPORTANT: The following restrictions apply to enabling or disabling the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties feature and should be considered collectively. Any, or none, of these restrictions might apply to your application.

Restriction #1
Storing your project comments and tag descriptions in the controller can increase upload/download times. Be aware of the following:
If you click the Cancel dialog box during the Finalize portion of the download process, the download process continues to successful completion and you may not be able to access the controller for long as 10 minutes.
If the Finalizing portion of the download process takes longer than 10 minutes, the controller can generate a Major Non-recoverable fault (MNRF).

To work around this restriction, clear the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox when downloading the project.

Restriction #2

IMPORTANT: This restriction exists only in environments that use multi-workstation development.
If you are using multi-workstation development, we strongly recommend that you configure the Logix Designer project to include all project documentation and extended properties when downloading a project to the controller.
This configuration setting is the default setting.
A Logix Designer project can lose content from the text boxes for routines written in either Function Block Diagram (FBD) or Sequential Function Chart (SFC) programming languages when both of the following conditions exist:
Multiple workstations are online with the controller.
The project is configured such that the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox is cleared.
When project edits are made at one workstation, the content in the text boxes of edited routines are deleted from all of the other workstations in the environment.
To work around this restriction, configure the Logix Designer project so that the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox is checked.

IMPORTANT: Consider the following:
This anomaly does not apply if your Logix Designer project uses Ladder Logic (LL) or Structured Text (ST) programming languages.
A restriction applies to when you check the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox.

Restriction #3

IMPORTANT: This restriction exists only in environments that use multi-workstation development.
If you are using multi-workstation development, we strongly recommend that you configure the Logix Designer project to include all project documentation and extended properties when downloading a project to the controller.
A Logix Designer project can temporarily lose content in the Rung Comments sections when all of the following conditions exist:
Multiple workstations are online with the controller.
The project is configured such that the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox is cleared.
The Logix Designer project uses the Ladder Logic programming language.
When project edits are made at one workstation, the content in the Rung Comments sections for the project rungs is briefly hidden in all of the other workstations in the environment.

When rung edits are finalized on the workstation that is making edits, the content in the Rung Comments sections for the project rungs reappears in the in all of the other workstations in the environment.

To work around this anomaly, configure the Logix Designer project so that the Download Project Documentation and Extended Properties checkbox is checked.

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011

Catalog Numbers:

If the controller is switched to Program mode while a sequence and phase are running, the phase state changes to idle and displays idle, while the sequence continues to show running. On transition back to Run mode, the sequence displays inactive.


Attribute Values Incorrect with Set System Value Instruction (00169713)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 27.011

Catalog Numbers:

                                                    

When you use a Set System Variable (SSV) instruction to set the values for attributes available with the WallClockTime class, the values can be set incorrectly.



Wall Clock Value Different From Previous Value (00169756)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 27.011

Catalog Numbers:


After you set the wall clock for a controller, the actual time can be offset from the value that you set by approximately 2 seconds.

This anomaly occurs after Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is disabled in a controller that was previously synchronized with the grandmaster clock.



Media Space Calculation Incorrect with 3rd-party Secure Digital Cards (00175295)

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011

Catalog Numbers:


The media space calculation that is done to determine the available memory on a Secure Digital (SD) card can be incorrect with 3rd-party SD cards that are 4 GB or greater.

This anomaly does not occur when you use SD cards available from Rockwell Automation. That is, the 1784-SD1 and 1784-SD2 cards.

We recommend that you use the SD cards available from Rockwell Automation with your controller.

While other SD cards can be used with the controller, Rockwell Automation has not tested the use of those cards with the controller. If you use an SD card other than those cards that are available from Rockwell Automation, you can experience data corruption or loss.



DeleteAllSockets MSG Can Cause a Major Non-recoverable Fault (00156732)

Corrected Anomaly as of Firmware Revision 31.011

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.011 for these catalog numbers:

·         CompactLogix™ 5370 Controllers

Certain I/O modules send more configuration data than fits in a standard forward open (508 bytes) when the connection is being established.  Therefore, the configuration process can take longer to complete. Examples include E300™ Electronic Overload Relays, 1444 Dynamics, 1718 I/O, 1719 I/O, and many third-party I/O devices.

When the configuration data is being sent to the device, if you change the configuration through the Add-on Profile for the device and then apply the changes the controller can assert.

Under these conditions, if an SFC is reset while evaluating parallel transitions, the chart may remember that one transition from before the reset was true. If another transition is true after the execution path reaches that select divergence again, the chart could still remember the transition from before the reset and choose the incorrect execution path.

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.054 for these catalog numbers: 

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011 for these catalog numbers:

The Equipment Phase has a property called ‘External Sequencer Loss of Communication Command’. This setting specifies the command to send to the phase when it is attached to by an external sequencer and the communication with the external sequencer is lost.

The options for this configuration are:
     - None (continue in its current state)
     - Hold
     - Stop
     - Abort

The anomaly occurs when Logix Designer has an override attach to the equipment phase and the connection is lost to Logix Designer. The anomaly is that the phase is sent the command specified in the ‘External Sequencer Loss of Communication Command’ property. What should happen is no command should be sent—only the override should be cleared. The configured command should only be sent when there is an External Sequencer (FTBatch) attached.

The consume axis can reach positions beyond the unwind value. This is something that can occur depending on the CUP (Course Update Period) of the Motion Group and the produced axis speed.

The consumed axis is configured for linear, but it applies the unwind value that the consumer gets from the producing axis. Depending on the execution schedule, the unwind value could be applied after the controller tag for the axis position has been updated.

The Configuration Update Status Bits attribute provides a method for monitoring the progress of one or more specific module configuration attribute updates initiated by either a Set Attribute List service or an SSV in the user program. As soon as such an update is initiated, the controller sets the ConfigurationUpdateInProcess bit. The bit remains set until the Set Attribute List reply comes back from the servo module indicating that the update process was successful. Thus, the Configuration Update Status Bits attribute provides a method of waiting until the servo configuration data update to the connected motion module is complete before starting a dependent operation.

CIP Motion Axis Feedback 1 and 2 length incorrectly converted by the controller (00218528, 00218407)

CORRECTED Anomaly with Firmware Revision 33.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 31.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 32.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 32.013 for these catalog numbers:

CIP Motion Axis attribute 1419 Feedback 1 Length and 1469 Feedback 2 Length are converted from float to integer by the controller before being sent to the drive. The conversion is unexpected and causes the value in the drive to become incorrect.

  

Axis Stuck In Synchronizing State When SSV And Inhibiting Axis On The Same Module (00229573, 00225308)

CORRECTED Anomaly with Firmware Revision 33.011 for these catalog numbers:


Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 20.011 for these catalog numbers:

Known Anomaly First Identified as of Firmware Revision 28.011 for these catalog numbers:

When continually executing multiple SSV instructions to change drive attributes on axis A and inhibiting axis B on the same module, axis A and other axes on the same module become stuck in the synchronizing state and never go to pre-charge/stopped state. You must re-download the project to recover.



Controller can take more time than expected to re-establish connections (00212775, 00227804)

CORRECTED Anomaly with

Known Anomaly First Identified in

If repeated connection interruptions occur because of network cable disconnections, the controller can take more than 10 minutes to re-establish connections. If the controller is power cycled, connection re-establishment is almost immediate.

  

On powerup CompactLogix and Compact GuardLogix controller Ethernet port may not properly initialize (00223080, 00179897)

CORRECTED Anomaly with

Known Anomaly First Identified in

When the controller is powering up, if there is sufficient incoming communication to the embedded Ethernet port, the port may not initialize properly and communication to and from the controller can fail. While the controller is in this state, the IP address of the controller is reported as 0.0.0.0 and the NS (Network Status) indicator is off.

To allow the embedded Ethernet port to initialize correctly to allow controller communication, the controller must be power-cycled with incoming communication sufficiently decreased.
