I just upgraded an old protool app from an OP37 to an MP277 with WinCC Flex.
I am not a siemens guy.
The conversion seemed to go fine with a couple of hiccups but now when I have installed the screen for some reason it is not updating tags in the PLC. I know that it is communicating OK because I am getting values back from the PLC.
I noticed that the numbers I am trying to i/o field are type "Input/Output", which seems strange as I thought they would be just Inputs.
I hope there is a "you forgot to do this you dumb a$$", solution but I haven't found it yet.
BTW I can't get protool to work on my new computer so I can't at the moment even open the old app.
edit: Forgot to mention, PLC is a S70-400, communication is MPI.
