I am new to Step 7 and would like to request for some suggestions on how to accomplish the following. I have a Step 7, SCL program that is continuously running, this program monitors some thermostats which are opening and closing based on the temperature they are exposed to. This information is recorded in a group of variables that are constantly being updated. Can anyone please provide a suggestion on how to examine these variables without stopping the system.

Thank you for your feedback, not sure what to do. I have been doing some reading and found a Siemens program called WEB2PLC which looks like it may work for my needs. Can you tell me were I can download this program from and will it workwith Step 7 Version 5.5. I have also uploaded a copy of my program. Please use FILE, RETRIEVE.

Thanks

In addition to STEP 7, the STEP 7 DVD contains the following programs with their setup in the directory CD2\Optional Components:
S7 Block Privacy for software block encryption
S7 Web2PLC for the integration of user-defined web sites in the CPU

More information and an extensive set of commands for programming user-defined websites are available in the S7-Web2PLC Online Help under "Configuring user-defined websites". Furthermore, a detailed example of how to create a website for plant visualization is available in "Applications & Tools" (Entry ID: 44212999).
