Re: [foxboro] Re-Usable Displays and Smurfed Values

I've had a similar problem with displays on an  AB gateway , the graphics
were being displayed in various locations and would come up with  smurfed
values randomly , the main graphic that was primarily called was quite busy
, the problem ended up being a memory shortfall in the gateway. I had to do
some juggling of the data on the main graphic to reduce memory size , our
gateway is a COMM15 , so you'll probably have to call Foxboro to get an idea
of were your memory threshold for an integrator 30 is.

List,
I am using re-usable displays for identical tanks.  Each tank gets a
compound of it's own on one Integrator 30 (for Modbus).  Each compound and
MDSCAN for that compound have a period of 30 seconds.  The Integrator 30
connects to a Tank Gauging system that houses all the tanks.  There is a red
"I" (overstrike text) next to some values of a tank, gross volume for
instance, that is invisible when the value calculated is good and visible
when the value is bad.  A boolean output of a CALC block (on the same
Integrator 30) determines if the "I" is visible or invisible.  Sometimes
these "I"s appears smurfed on the graphic of the WP51D.  The "I" almost
always appears smurfed on a remote display via Exceed.  The boolean output
of the CALC block appears normal when using Select.  The actual values,
which are AIN or real outputs of a CALC, never appear smurfed.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Is there a way to fix it?
