Posted 18 Dec 2020 Hi guys. I'm experiencing a latched memory turned off even all of the contact is still on and trigger the coil. Anyone familiar with this? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Dec 2020 Check your program that you are not writing to the coil from more than one place. The PLC scans top to bottom, so if an output is coded twice, the one at the bottom of the program wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 19 Dec 2020 (edited) Check for something like K2M100, where the M100 in this example represents your latched bits, the example shown actions M100 through to M115, the K2 represents 2 nybbles (2 x 4bits) also check the used devices list. are the addresses being written to by a HMI or external equipment?

Posted 20 Dec 2020 it could be a whole bunch of instructions that could be responsible. some will only affect one bit, some will do one or more words... consider posting details like PLC type, software version, cross reference etc. on small PLCs (FX) latched area may be fixed, on larger PLCs it may be configurable. also you did not post your code so maybe your code is not scanned (MCR?)
