Hi everyone,
I'm upgrading the panel from one of our machines (an old Xycom 2060 to a MultiPanel 277 touch from siemens), the thing is that on one of the screens I need to input a value from 0 to 25 and the variable on the screen should appear as a letter (A to Z), but all the variables must be numerical (because that's how the PLC program is structured), so it should be like this:
Variable 42000 (numerical).- Can take values from 0 to 25 and it shows the value I input.
Variable 42009 (numerical). Depending on the value of 42000 it shows letters 0=A, 1=B, 3=C...., 25=Z.
I was thinking of using some tipe of "case" function but I can't find it..., I don't even know if this can be made on the WinCC Flex, but if the old panel is able to manage it I imagine the new one can also...
Hope someone can help me.
Juan
