A request pulse disappears between polls (Fairino FR10)

Our application sometimes misses the PLC's brief request for inspection-cycle coordination. I'm reviewing that ordinary, non-safety handshake for Fairino FR10 in a workshop inspection station awaiting commissioning, with a fixture-mounted bracket in the setup. Signal ownership and clearing conditions aren't clearly documented. The safety functions are independently engineered and separate from this job interface.

Does your trace show when the PLC request is raised and cleared relative to application polls, including which side performs the clearing?

@FionaBrooks0847 I've compared the trace: the PLC raises and clears the request between consecutive application polls, with no observed acknowledgement before it clears.

Take an ownership table and a retained-request proposal to the interface owner. A request held until matching acknowledgement should settle the handshake in an offline review.

Settle it? Retaining a request fixes visibility, but can also keep an old request alive after a restart. Identity and reset rules matter.
