1. Downloading to a SoftLogix 5800 controller while another controller in the chassis is running a motion application may affect the motion application Do not perform a download to a SoftLogix 5800 controller in the chassis while another controller in the same chassis is running a motion application Doing so may impact the motion execution Be sure to only single click the SoftLogix 5800 icon during installation Do not double click the SoftLogix 5800 icon on the installation browser dialog box This can cause two copies of the SoftLogix 5800 installation procedure to launch If two copies of the installation program start you may not be able to perform a normal uninstall If this occurs you will see this error message when an uninstall is attempted Failed to load dll _UninstallTmp If this situation occurs you have to manually uninstall the program The manual uninstall procedure is available as Knowledgebase document KB22639 Avoid mixed operand types between the destination and its inputs For maximum portability across platforms it is best to avoid mixed operand types between the destination and its inputs If getting identical results for similar operations across languages is important to you make sure to perform floating point operations However floating point operations do not perform as well Other considerations exist as well such as how compatible your operands are with that of the 1 0 being used and so on2. Incorrect setting for Initialization bit may cause incorrect function block execution values When you perform a Partial Import Online PIO of a function block routine that contains S Curve function blocks across Logix platforms set the Initialize bit in the backing tag control structure of all S Curve instructions This configuration causes the S Curve instructions to re initialize themselves Failure to set the Initialize bit in the backing tag control structure of all S Curve instructions may cause the S Curve function block to execute with uninitialized values Lgx00114927 Lgx00114935 Download of converted Logix Designer project to SoftLogix 5800 controller causes need for additional tasks The Totalizer TOT instruction may not function properly when a converted project is downloaded to a SoftLogix 5800 controller catalog number 1789 L10 1789 L30 or 1789 L60 version 20 00 00 or later This anomaly may occur under these conditions e An RSLogix 5000 project is running on a SoftLogix 5800 controller catalog number 1789 L10 1789 L30 or 1789 L60 version 18 00 00 or earlier with the TOT instruction in Run mode e The project is uploaded and saved to a new file The new file is changed to use a SoftLogix 5800 controller catalog number 1789 L10 1789 L30 or 1789 L60 version 19 00 00 or later and is downloaded to a new controller of the same catalog number e The project transitions to Run mode Upon transitioning

Table 7 Known Anomalies with Version 21 Controllers Cat No 1789 L10 1789 L30 1789 L60 Description No Arithmetic Overflow Minor fault is seen in the Softlogix software but is seen in a hard controller if you are passing parameters to an Add On Instruction and the source value exceeds the range of Add On Instruction s parameter For example if the Add On Instruction input parameter type is SINT and the source value passed to the Add On Instruction is 99999 9999 exceeds the range of SINT which is 128 to 127 in a hard controller you will see overflow minor fault but will not in the Softlogix software Lgx00118782 Lgx00127537 Repeated power cycling or resetting the ethernet switch that connects the Softlogix 1 0 module to the control system may cause the Softlogix ethernet connections not to be re established Resolving this condition requires removing the Softlogix ethernet module from the Chassis Monitor then re insert the Softlogix Ethernet module once the power to the ethernet switch has been restored Lgx00126929 When the MCR zone is disabled all rungs inside the MCR zone are expected to be disabled However if LBL instruction is used in a rung inside the disabled MCR zone the instructions after LBL in that rung will be enabled which is incorrect Lgx00136977 When using the Automatic Device Configuration ADC feature the Logix controller owns the configuration in the drive Do not use the HIM or other
