I only want to enable control of my block from a certain operating station so I would like to know the technique used in the faceplate to disable control on some operating stations. I could use some scripting in WinCC to check the internal tag that contains the computername but it would be fancy to get OpStations and it's faceplate to work for my block.

I copied "Feature", "OpSt_In" and "OpSt_Out" block inputs from an APL-block to my block and added attached network to my code. The OpStation feature was then working in the faceplate without changing anything since i had used command-buttons from existing APL-faceplates and from @PCS7ElementsAPL.pdl.
