Bryll Posts: 168 Rating: (5)	Hello, I'm trying to find an easy solution to trig a page change in my operator panel project with aboolean bit. In this case shall a specific page be shown when an input is activated, so I'd like to trigger the page change on the inputspositive edge. I've been reading all over the forum, but I haven't found any easy solution for it. Guess this must be a built in function, I can't just find it. I'm running the TIA Portal V11 and V12 Professional. Any help would be much appreciated

Bryll Posts: 168 Rating: (5)	Hi, I'm running professional. Found a function in the tag list under "properties -> events" for the tag, where I could select the "Activate Screen" function on the tags value change. Seems to that this should be the proper way to do it, but it doesn't work at all

Bryll Posts: 168 Rating: (5)	OK, one of the two page changes I want to perform works. For the first one is I0.1 used, it does not work at all. For the second one is I0.5 used, and this one works great. Is it only possible to use one page change in the project, would not think so but I have to ask?? I also made a script that I run upon the tag value change, and it only works for the "second one". This will give me a lot of grey hair ......
