Issue:
The Weighing value transmitted by the partner module PMESWT0100 to the CPU is suddenly fixed and does not change anymore based on the actual weight. HMI Values which are connected to the SCAIME HMI ports are not affected.
The module needs to be reseated (unplugged and plugged back in) for the weight value to start working again.

Environment:
Unity Pro 13.0 & 13.1
Control Expert 14 & 14.1
Unity Pro 13.0 & 13.1
Control Expert 14 & 14.1
Cause:
We discovered that the PMESWT0100 module has a firmware bug which causes the freezing of the value transmitted from the module to the CPU after several weeks of operation.
As a consequence, the value displayed in Unity Pro does not change based on the actual weight and remains fixed at the last known good value.
The module needs to be reseated (unplugged and plugged back in) for the weight value to start working again.
The probability of this occurring is random and the issue manifests under specific contexts.
Criticality largely depends of how the site application is developed and if other means of detecting potential issues on the weighing function are present such as continuous monitoring of the analog value.
