‣ Enter for the new data block (new module) in the column , the
data block number from the STEP7 project.
Configure Signal
For a signal from a module of the type Data Block you need to make the
configuration steps listed below:
1. Signal Type for write/read access to the signal
2. Data Type (bit, byte, word …), for the signal characteristics, such as
length, floating decimal point / fixed decimal point, signs, etc.
3. Offset of the signal in the module of the type Data Block according
to the STEP7 configuration (mandatory input)
4. Bit-Number (only for the data type bit).
5. SCADA must be checked, to provide the signal at the OPC server.
Add Signal
‣ To add a signal to a module, you must select in the table the line of the
module, to which you want to add a signal.
‣ Then click Add Signal .
The signal is inserted at the lower end of the module’s signal list.
In this way, you can add additional modules and signals to an already
imported STEP7 project.
Remove Table Entries
‣ Mark the line of the table were the entry to remove is.
‣ Then click Remove .
