Dear All,

I'm a new PCS 7 8.0/8.1 user. I would like to open OpTrigs faceplates without using default block icons and using simple WinCC buttons instead (or other simple graphical object, like a rectangle with some text on it). At the present time I don't care about alarms/messages displayed on the WinCC button. 

I saw that faceplates are called with a proper function (APL_Faceplates) but I don't understand which parameters I have to pass to that function.

Could you experts give me some hints?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Have you seen this How do you create your own block icons with SIMATIC PCS 7?
