Hi
I am working with a S7-314 PLC attached to a TP170B Simatic HMI and programming with Step 7.
What I am trying to do is the following:
1. I created a timer will time to 15 minutes, but i want to dispaly the preset of the timer and the accumulated value in an output box on the HMI. Can this be done with siemens like you can with Allen Bradley ?
2. I want the preset value of the timer mentioned above to be able to be modified. For example, i want to have an input box on the screen where the user can enter a number like 10 (minutes) and the timer will run for 10 minutes.
Thanks for any help !!
