Hi all,
I was reading this article on PLC troubleshooting and online debugging:
PLC Troubleshooting and Online Debugging
It covers general techniques, but I’m specifically interested in how others approach online debugging with Siemens PLCs (S7-1200/1500 series) in the field.
What’s your typical process when you're connected to a Siemens PLC that’s misbehaving?
Do you rely more on TIA Portal's online monitoring, force I/Os, check diagnostic buffers, or use trace functionality?
Also, how do you deal with intermittent issues that are hard to reproduce during a live debug session?
Would love to hear any best practices, tips, or tools that have helped you streamline the process.
Thanks in advance!
