84 Configure and Program the Controller
Look for Array Shift Instructions
These instructions might corrupt data during a switchover:
• BSL
• BSR
• FFU
Because these instructions shift data within an array, an interruption
by a higher priority task and a subsequent switchover leaves the data
with an incomplete shift.
• If a higher priority task interrupts one of these instructions, the
partially shifted array values are sent to the secondary controller.
• If a switchover occurs before the instruction completes its
execution, data remains only partially shifted.
• The secondary controller starts its execution at the beginning of
the program. When it reaches the instruction, it shifts the data
again.
Look for Scan-Dependent Logic
A rung that must read the output of another rung during the same
scan might miss a scan during a switchover.
Scan-Dependent Logic
A. The CTU instruction counts each scan.
B. The EQU instruction uses the count of each scan
(scan_count.ACC).
