I have in my software to Recipe View function, I'm saving all my variables of recipe in internal HMI tags, must save the internal data that I use in my Recipe for a PLC DB containing the same variables. I need a VBS to make this function? Where can I find examples of VBS for this function? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Split from VBS in WinCC V12.

If not: Change the internal tags to PLC tags in the tag table and click on the [...] in the column "PLC tag" to choose the according PLC tag in the DB you want to connect with. This way everything is saved in the DB instantly. If you have to: Create an HMI tag for every PLC tag in the DB you want to write to. (Or you create a datatype.) Open a new VBS script. On the right side click on "Add function" in the "Function list". Write "SetTag" (or double click and choose from the list of system functions). Fill out the parameters with your HMI Tags. Select a PLC_HMI-tag for "Tag(Output)". Click on the little arrow on the right side of the "Value" row, select "HMI_tag" instead of "Double". Select the internal HMI tag that is related to the one in "Tag (Output)" for "Value". Click on "Apply". The code is transferred into your script. Repeat for every pair of tags. Call your script with some event on a button or something similar.
