[ISS Support Case] System Platform 2020 R2 SP1 - Information Request
Last updated: October 17th, 2025Description
The client is seeking guidance on the following: Confirming Data Accuracy in PLC: How to verify data accuracy in a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) if it is shut down or taken off the network. Best Practices for Data Accuracy: Recommendations for ensuring data accuracy between InTouch and the PLC. Preventing Writes to Disconnected PLC: Methods to prevent writing to the PLC if it is not connected or is off the network. Ensuring Data Consistency: Strategies to guarantee that any value modified in InTouch is also modified in the PLC. For example, if there is an InTouch button that is scripted to write to value in PLC, what is the best way to confirm consistency between InTouch & PLC. Additionally, would like to know of a system or status bit that can display a warning or message in WindowViewer if PLC is not connected (Heartbeat tag configuration). Client is using ABCIP communication driver.

I am seeing an issue with SP2023 R2 P1 related to appengine failovers. When I cause an appengine failover, data (primarily analog) has a gap in the trend until the data changes. Sometimes the gap stays but sometimes the gap is "filled" in for some reason. I'm having a bit of a consistency issue trying to replicate this problem. Every time I cause a failover, the results are slightly different but I do see bad results. To demonstrate this, I created two videos to show what I'm seeing. If someone can create a problem ticket and reach out to me, I can forward the videos to InSource to show what I'm seeing.
