Hi zonouzi, First of all, I'm very curious why are you using step7 way to design your program using PCS7? Is there a special reason? I think using this kind of programming destroys the whole PCS7 concept. You know that when you do a full AS compile, the instance datablock changes? So, you are kind of screwed when you use this method multiple times...you need to set the correct datablock names again after each full AS compile. For your questions, see below:

Hello zonouzi, plan-in-plan technology or chart-in-chart technology is a method to inserted a CFC chart into another CFC chart. For more information you can get here. How to use the chart-in-chart technology:

Hello zonouzi,
with your method you will not minimize the size of code (kB) you generate. Even will you generate more code, you alone will minimize the number of DBs in your project with this method. When you want to minimize the size of code (kB) you have to use the blocks with "S" at the end, i. e. VlvS. More information you can get here. Back to your original problem.
1) the dimmed icon is from the memo-function of the APL-block, here you get more information about the memo-function. 2) the X in the group display means that you have locked alarms at the faceplate, but you lock icon is open. You can get more information about the group display and lock alarms here. Both errors indicate that the blockicon has not all variables from the block. But I don't know which variables are missing. With regards |

HelloHeisenberg2, You are right (as always), some needed tags are not generated in Wincc. For example OS-internal variables for Memo, "xxx.#TextPermanent" and "xxx.#StatusPermanent" are not generated, despite of marking the "AUTHOR" attribute of the related DB to start with "AdvLib81", as said in PCS7 Libraries APL Style Guide". Moreover: The given links bring me to the following page. I am wondering if you may point me to the link related to "Memo-Functions" and "Lock/Unlock Messages".
my best regards, |

Hello zonouzi,
By testing in PCS 7 V7.1 you didn't use the Advanced Process Library but the PCS 7 Standard Library. So it seems that the "X" in the message related icons is specific from the APL. From PCS 7 V8.0 or higher PCS 7 Standard Library is no longer installed automatically via the frame setup. It is provided in the directory "Additional Products" on the PCS 7 DVD and can be installed manually. With the release of PCS 7 V8.1, the PCS 7 Standard Library is not available as version V8.1, but only as last released version V7.1.3.
And there is no small version for VlvMotL (FB1900) available. with regards |
