If you use there a String tag you can show this tag a several screens for example and show the user wich recipe/ data records ist active. best regards

Thank you for shared experience! [schnippschnapp] new question is splitted to The data record name of the recipe (in cyrillic) appears with a question marks (?????), once it is received back from PLC to HMI.

Then in there createtwo variables, MODEL NAME and MODEL NAME PASS THROUGH (or whatever you want to call them) Then in the recipe of your HMI use MODEL NAME as one of your recipe settings (input field), that will link to the PLC tag you already created. Then go back to the PLC use a string move function and pss the MODEL NAME variable to the MODEL NAME PASS THROUGH. Go back to HMI and use the MODEL NAME PASS THROUGH variable to show the currently set model on any screen. Theres probably a better way of doing it but that works great for me...

MSM@Infrabaker Posts: 3 Rating: (1)	Hi all, The solution I saw on the thread only applies to the "viewed recipe", not the "Active loaded" one to the PLC. Because I want to show the active loaded one on my process screen, does someone have a solution? Perhaps in a script to track the actual loading of the recipe and than write it to a string tag? Have no clue how to do this... Thanks, Martijn
