 Hello M. Abzadeh, instead of fixed time t#10s, you can put there a variable, variable data type must be time. So inside some Data block clear variable MyWinccSetTime of Time type. Write that variable instead of t#10s PT input to a Timer. Connect WinCC directly to the MyWinccSetTime symbolic name or address. In the case WinCC does not let you choice Time as a data type, you can use Dint, just in that case you will have to divided your entered value with 1000 in order to get seconds inside PLC. 

Thankyou, mr Soble

I'm glad you manage to find a way, other way maybe a little bit easier would to writte directly from WinCC DINT Tag, than inside PLC you just need to divide number with 1000.0

But on the end it does not matter too much, since you get it working :)
