I have just picked up a demo copy of Step 7 V5.3 from Siemens. They do not have a real copy in Ozz that I can buy - has to come in. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
The price they quoted me for the "basic" edition is also "unbelievable" when one considers it does not do the 200 processor and has no simulator.
However, I am trying to create some FBs without reading the absolutely painfull manual.
Can anyone help? How can I create some FBs from the Step 7 menu?
For some reason when it is running it "mucks up" the windows task bar. Also amazed at the lack of built in functions. I am used to heaps of functions.
Drag and drop is "painfull" - are there function key combinations?
I have not used Siemens for about 8 years but they certainly have their own way of doing things.
