Definitely a weird one.
I use triple level terminals with two items pre-coded into the symbol block for the multiple catalog items.
(I modified HT/ VT0002 symbols to contain the MFG01, MFG02, CAT01, and CAT02 values and are loading the values from TEXTVALUE.)
When associating the terminals to each other I discovered a strange thing happening.
If I look at the Multiple catalog items before associating, the MFG and CAT values are correct.
If I then associate the terminals together, go back to the primary dialog box, and look at the multiple catalog items, the MFG and CAT values have flipped; MFG01 value is now CAT01 value and CAT01 value is now MFG01 value.
If I exit the dialog box at this time, the values stay flipped.
If I go back to the associate step and do everything again, only this time I DO NOT look at the Multiple catalog items before exiting for the first time, the values do not flip.
This is very repeatable.
I do not always look at the MC values but sometimes I do before exiting. This is a subtle change and I do not always catch it but it plays havoc with my item numbers and quantities on the panel side.
Just wanted to bring to everyone's attention.
