COMPILING DATA BLOCK IN STEP7 v5.6

Hello all,

We have a CPU 315-2PN/DP which is programmed in Step 7 v5.4 and we are trying to use winCC TIA v14 for operator interface. We want to add the CPU as a proxy device in the winCC project. On initializing the device proxy, it says one of the data blocks in the source project needs to be compiled. However, we cannot find a way to compile this data block. Could anyone know the procedure of compiling a data block or any other block? Because we see the "compile" option is inactive.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi Kiiza,

Try to create the WinCC TIA project without CPU.
