When using a Driver in mode "Simulation - static" and in the zenon runtime the Driver command "Switch to Hardware mode" is executed, variables of the corresponding Driver get INVALID (correct) but when then executing the Driver command "Switch to Simulation mode" the variable stays INVALID but gets also SPONT.

• When using 3S_V3 driver in redundant mode, a communication loss to the primary and secondary PLC will not lead to invalid bits in the runtime. When the primary and secondary PLC is available again, the 3S_V3 driver does not reestablish the connection and although the variables in the zenon runtime show the SPONT bit, no communication is possible.

  Summary When the 3S_V3 is used in redundant mode, the variables in the zenon runtime do not get invalid when the connection to the primary and secondary PLC is lost. The 3S_V3 also does not reestablish the connection to the primary or secondary plc ...
