ABBA network issues
Thread Content
Has anyone ever used the Allen-Bradley SMARTPRO system? We often encounter network problems that cause the entire network to lose connectivity. Sometimes it fixes itself, but other times it doesn’t recover, and it’s really frustrating! I’ve encountered a similar problem and would like to discuss it; any advice would be greatly appreciated! ! :Q
Are all the patches installed? What version is the original poster using?
If it occurs after the system has been running for a long time, it might be due to a hardware failure or a network storm that has caused congestion in the network. Please check the hardware and use ping to determine how long it takes for responses to come from each node； If it behaves this way from the start, it is recommended to check for consistency in software versions
We have only used MACS, and we haven’t encountered this issue; the patch needs to be installed properly.
There are two versions: 3.1.2 and 3.1.3+SP2, and similar faults have occurred in both
I have used several sets of ABB’s DCS systems, and I’ve encountered quite a few problems. However, by communicating more with the manufacturer, the quality of maintenance can be improved.
