Thank you Oreca. I'm kind of lost here. Is there some example? |

Here are a few topics I responded to: https://support.industry.siemens.com/tf/us/en/posts/custom-block-icon/151745/?page=0&pageSize=10 I think this is easier to understand. If not, please let me know |

Hi, Please see the attached file. I had created this from the APL style guide. This may help you. AttachmentBlock_Creation.pdf (171 Downloads) |

Hi, I hope you have done all the settings in SCL code properly. Please check whether the header parameters are set at AS end or not. Kindly also elaborate the problem you are facing or features are not working in you end. AttachmentBlock_Creation - AS.pdf (145 Downloads) |

Higgor, Understanding the concept of APL block and faceplate creation is something that takes time. You should start simple: You have created a block of your own. I'm assuming you have added system attributes for the parameters such as s7_m_c. If you use structures, you must use s7_xm_c for the data types inside the structure. This is described in the APL Styleguide. Easiest for you to do is to open a Siemens block which has already the parameters you want to use. For example: If you have some logic in your own block like give a reset from CFC, you can open the VlvL block for example in the blocks folder. When opened, go to the "interface" on top and select "IN" and then look for RstLi. Take over the data type structure and right click->Object Properties->Attributes and check which attributes exist for the parameter. When your SCL block is ready, make sure your block is send to WinCC by creating: "S7_m_c" for the block itself and compile it. Set a block icon number and go to the PCS7TypicalsV8.pdl file. You can now copy a block icon and set the correct type and servername. You can find this in my previous post how to do this by clicking on the first link. Next thing you must do is to copy faceplates of the block icon you copied. Change the faceplates to the correct block type (which is your SCL). You can also find this in the link I gave you. If you copied the faceplates of the VlvL, you can see that there is a Reset button which is connected to the RstLi. If you gave it another name in your SCL, you can change the name. Make sure you start with a "dot". |
