Hello team,

I am trying to do a basic scripting on WinCC V16.

I am checking the Integer state of a plc UDT and using that to generate a string to display on my HMI

I keep getting errors and the most frustrating is the "if" expected.

Its telling me to add and "if" on the same line I have the End Sub.

I have attached the error screenshot, perhaps someone else is seeing what i am not seeing.

I will really appreciate your comments.

Thanks

Hi,

As Frink suggests, a Text List would be simpler than using script, but I think the script expect "end if" to close all the "if ... then" statements.

Hi,

In your script you have 3 "IF "

so you need 3 "End IF"

Hello what you probably want to do assuming you want a single end if  statement is to use the if elseif structure

it should go like this :

IF (case1) then

elseif (case2) then

elseif (case3) then

else 

end if

If you have three ifs then three end ifs are expected as stated above!

 Thank you very much Gdim93. I eventually found out that it works with 3 End_If.
Thanks for the example as well.
I will switch to the elseif Strcuture.

Thank you.

 Please, can you give me an example of a text list?
I would like to try this option.

Thank you very much.

Hi,

double-click on the compiling error leads directly to this script?

Why not using a text list for showing the status?

Hello again,

As far as text lists go you will find them on your panel or pc application navigation window on the text and graphic lists tab.

Once you open the text lists tab tap add new with a selection value/range

assign your text list entries to numbers by adding new rows for every number of your udt integer.

then create a  symbolic io field on your panel .

On the symbolic IO field you specify the text list you wanna use and as process tag connect the integers of your udt. Hope this helps you enough!
