You state the byte(s) you wish to work with, convert to show bits (KM) rather than a hex figure (KH) then change the relevant bits from a 0 to a 1. You can force outputs in STOP mode. This is a link to the manual; http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/llisapi.dll?func=cslib.csinfo&lang=en&siteid=cseus&aktprim=0&startNode=4000024&nodeID0=10805348&basisview=4000003&viewLevel=6&wttree=cs&foldersopen0=-540-539-504-185-184-505-506-507-&jumpto=507
