How to convert this piece of code from s7-300 SCL to s7-1200 SCL: [code] // Timer #TimeTS5 := S_ODT (T_NO := #IntTimer , S := NOT (#resetT), TV := #TimeIntT , R := #resetT , BI := #TimeT, Q := #B_I_Q) ; [/code] Or how to define timer in SCL of s7-1200. [code] VAR_INPUT IntTimer: TIMER; END_VAR [/code]

It needs to be static so that limits things a bit. For timers, I tend to drag in the timer from the instruction list into the SCL editor window and fill in the blanks for the various fields. It really helps get the syntax right the first time for me. If you select multi-instance, it will automatically insert the timer into the static area of the FB interface. That makes it very easy to setup. If you want a single instance DB, it will create that for you as well.

I don't understand : If you select multi-instance,...

I don't understand : If you select multi-instance,... Open up the SCL FB. Find the timer, like TON, in the list of instructions. DRAG it into your SCL logic where you want your timer to be. Window pops up. On the left are single and multi-instance boxes. Click on Multi-Instance if you want to embed the timer into the FB. Click on Single Instance if you want only one timer for the FB and it will help create a global timer db. Hope this helps.

VAR INPUT IntTimer: TIMER; END VAR No. TIA Portal use the interface editor for tags. If you export the SCL once you have it working, you will see it exports to look very similar to the S7-300 text but the timer will be IEC_TIMER, or at least it has been for me.
