PLC-Designer: If the first logic device in the device tree, e.g. 8400, 9400, is deactivated, the devices in the device tree are displayed in red (fixed as of L_LCB V03.29.00)

Removed from:
Library:   L_LCB_LogikControlBasic  as of V03.29.00
                    (Update via Package Manager)

Behavior of the new version:
In the PLC-Designer, the subsequent logic axes in the device tree are now displayed in green when the EtherCAT device (8400Logic, 9400 Logic) is deactivated.


Description of behavior:
In the PLC Designer, if the first EtherCAT device (8400Logic, 9400 Logic) is deactivated, subsequent logic axes are displayed in red in the device tree, although the EtherCAT bus is in the 'Operational' state and the devices can be controlled.
 
Under what conditions does the behavior occur?
  • Logic devices (8400Logic, 9400 Logic) in use and
  • The first, physically present Logic device on the EtherCAT is deactivated.
Affected products:
Library:  L_LCB_LogikControlBasic 

Short-term measures / Evaluation/Recommendations:
The following options for short-term remedies are available: 
  1. Remove the deactivated logic device from the device tree . 
    As a result however compiler error messages may occur if the logic ref is used in the application.
  2. Exclude the deactivated logic device from the build. 
    As a result compiler error messages may also occur if the logic ref is used in the application.
  3. Move the deactivated logic device behind an active device in the physical device arrangement in the EtherCAT network.
