Are you using OAJ Operator Action Journal We have found that most lockups are caused by OAJ actions not being able to get to their destination because they no longer exists, out of service or historian is not responding timely. When this occurs, actions get queued up in the workstation and can't be delivered. About 120-150 mouse clicks queued up can cause apparent lockup. Current Alarm Display is usually the most common offeneder as operator actions can build up quickly during upset conditions. Be sure all OAJ destinations are available and functioning. ________________________________ From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of andrew.roberts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tue 5/15/2007 4:26 AM To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [foxboro] Keyboard locks up on a AW/WP on a 51B box We have a number of 51B boxes running Foxboro 6.1.1 and 6.2.1 - we have over the years experienced keyboard locks ups, but recently the problem seems to be getting more frequent. The problem happens on different boxes on different areas - so no pattern. To resolve the issue we have to kill the alarm manager from a remote station due to the keyboard on the local station not working. This then releases the local keyboard to work again until the next time - approx every 6 weeks this happens but we have 25 51B boxes - so the frequency seems worse. We have implemented the changed in CAR 1003752 where you edit the .Xdefaults file - but this as made no difference - this as been in place for a few years. As anyone had similar problems, if so how did you resolve.
