You can find info on the STEP5 editor in the Manual here: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/9830806 It tells you all on how to open the project in Ladder with Symbols (and a lot more) Hope this will help you out. Regards, Ronald |

Hi, I made a quick printout of the most important things in your program. There were some thing I had to adjust in the project settings In Tab "symbolik" the *Z0.INI file (symbolikdatei 1st row)does not exist so you can't select it. However the Z0.SEQ does (zuordnungsliste, 2nd row), so you can select this one there. Symboliklange must be adjusted to 24 Kommentarlaenge must be adjusted to 40 (default length is to short, so you can't readout) Then you can open the Editor -> zuordnungsliste OR F7 (sorry I have STEP5 running in German) Here you can see the symbolics. When you save the *Z0.INI file will be generated as well So far so good, Hope I helped you out here... Regards Ronald AttachmentS5Print.pdf (297 Downloads) |

Dear RPvM, thanks for your reply. Pls refer attached screen shots when i worked with STEP5. Pic 1 - Project SET open page Pic 2 - Project BLOCKS setting page Pic 3 - Getting error after setting the blocks page. I have select GENERATE in this screen. Pic 4 - Project SYMBOLS setting page After doing all the setting in project when i open PB5 and PB32 (for a trial) i am getting both blcoks without symbols. All other blocks also displayed without symbol only. Pls refer pic 5 and pic 6. Now pls tell me where i did mistake for not getting symbols in ladder. AttachmentPic.zip (672 Downloads) |
