Dim objWshShell Set objWshShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") objWshShell.Run "cmd /C time 16:30", 1 In the simulation on my PC it works fine. But after a download to the TP270 It doesn't work Does anyone know of there is a way to set the system time in a TP270 by script? Thanks for thinking ME

So, any access to the shell is impossible, for instance. But I don't get the idea behind your script. It makes no sense to set the system time always to the same value. There you can find a FAQ, how to handle the time on Panels: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/24104104 Or use a simple Date-Time field with the mode "Input/output" to set the time of the panel. If it must be handled by script, you have to use the area pointer "Date/Time PLC" with additional tags. In this case, the FAQ above isalso good for understanding the handshake beetween panel and PLC.
