Hi,

you may have a look here to set HMI time from PLC: Time synchronization between WinCC and a SIMATIC PLC

If you use datatype Date, then you must use VBS function Date.

CurrentDate = Date

 If date and time is what you want, change your datatype to Date_And_Time and use Now in VBS.

Thanks for your reply. I don't need time sync. I want to get current date to register. 

I wrote code in VBS(Visual Basic Script), but date is not correct. It shows date like 21/10/2113. System date shows normal date time. Type of CurrentDate tag is "Date" which is data type like Int. 

SmartTags("CurrentDate") = Now;

 When print the Now variable

MsgBox Now

 Shows correct date and time. My problem is just conversion 

Hello OWI_Engineering

Which WInCC do you use? (Comfort/Advanced/Professional/Unified?)

I made a quick test in V18 wich S71500 and Comfort Panel -> Here the

SmartTags("CurrentDate") = Now

Works for me without problems, also if you do a convertion like:

SmartTags("CurrentDate") = CDate(Now)
