Hey, Daniel Cyborg.

I am currently in the process of converting our first Siwarex M to a Siwarex FTA at my facility, but we are experiencing difficulties in doing so.

We are using PCS7, I think version 8.1.

We already installed the HSP file that came with the configuration CD and configured the FTA module in the hardware config. We installed the physical module in the field and it appears to be connected to the network with no faults present. Our issue now is figuring out the programming side. We expected to see new function blocks in our library related to FTA after installing the HSP, but we cant find them. We are also concerned about how our visuals might be affected in WinCC when we make the switch.

If possible, could I ask for your assistance on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If there is any other information I would need to provide, please feel free to ask.

Thank you.
