S7-315-2 processor. My Background is allen-bradley products and i have found out already there is a significant difference between software. My goal is to take a bit and assign it to a bit position in a word. We flag alarms using individual bits that are inturn flagged on the HMI, however the Siemens software requires a word for a tag to be assigned. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreaciated. Thanks

Hope this help
