Hello,
New to to site so dont know what to expect!!. If there is anyone who can offer any help with a programming problem I have I will be most grateful.
The problem is that I am trying to use IEC FC 5 to change a DBD to a STRING format but when I try to drop it into a block it already says 'FC 5 already exists' and it is there as FC 5 SYSTEM-SEND AG block. I have been on the Siemens support wbsite but could find nothing of use. The CPU i am using is an S7 414-2DP.
Thanks
 
Open the library and your project, then drag FC5 from the library blocks folder to your project blocks folder. It will complain that FC5 already exists and give you the option to rename it which you should do.
