Hello,

I am using ET200 SP (CPU 1500) and simatic PC station and I want to use pop up windows but I don't have pop-up possibility in SIMATIC pc Station, can someone explain to me why? and how can I do that?

Thanks

Hello dmuzina,

In case of WinCC Professional there is no dedicated solution for pop-ups (like in HMIs), you will need to use the concept of visibility in a screen window, when you want to open a "pop-up" you will need to set the visibility of a Screen Window to true and when you do not want to show the screen window anymore, simply add a button to the screen to "reset" its visibility, this way you will be able to open and close a "pop-up".

I can get the popup to show.

The popup is a motor plate using a faceplate but for some reason its not showing any data, it was at one point but just stopped.

I am not using any prefix in the Popup code so any idea why the data isn't showing?

Thanks

I have discovered that it isn't the popup causing the issue: If I load the faceplate into a screenwindow the data isn't populated into the faceplate.

Is there something I should be looking at as to why the data isn't visible in the faceplate?

This is the same for all the different faceplates, but up until recently it was working.
