I've seen that same thing.  These parameters don't seem to get updated in 
a very timely manner when they change (several second jitter as you have 
seen).

What I do instead for stuff like this is to use the TIM command in the 
CALC clock (seconds since midnight).  This is a lot "tighter" number, at 
least in my experience.

[foxboro] Follow-up ACCUM reset and Question






The original problem was trying to get an ACCUM block in two different 
CP's
to reset at the same time.  In our case setting the ACCUM blocks as the
first block in the compund in each CP and using the same calc block for 
the
reset seemed to take care if it.  There is about a 1 second difference 
now.
 
New question, we're using a CALC block to reset the ACCUM blocks using
xxCPxx_STA:STATION.HOUR and .MINUTE parameters.  The reset is set to occur
at 23:58, looking a values in the historian the reset will occur anywhere
between 23:58:08 and 23:58:16.  This is not an issue but I was curious why
it takes that long to process?
 
Thanks,
