manute Posts: 29 Rating: (0)	Hello, I'm using PCS7 v8. I have many valves and motors in my project, but when I open runtime and I open the faceplate or a motor (or a valve), I cannot open the interloks. In the CFC editor I just use, in the same CFC page: A motor block A interlok block connected to the motor Compile and so on, the motor appears in the OS, but in runtime I cannot open the interloks. What am I forgetting? (Using the option of generate the bock icon of the interlok I can open the interloks, but clicking on the block icon of the interlok, not in the link of the faceplate of the motor) thanksss!!!

Then compile OS and AS and check if you see a button in the motor faceplate. It should be visible so when clicking on it, it takes you to the connected block...

Not sure, but you can try to run the Simatic Rights tool on the PCS7 DVD... Its under the second disc\Additional tools\Simatic Rights., find you project and press OK. also check your users and groups assigment if there are OK..

Also check the language for non-unicode programs... There is a problem between Simatic manager and WinCC...Simatic is language independent, but WinCC is not.. And WinCC takes over the Simatic language.. In short: set the non unicode language to a released language (via control panel->change display language->Administrative->Change system locale. It could be the buttons are not showing/working because of this....
