Hi
I am new to the Siemens programming scene and I have been given a task of using a TP170B touch panel to control an S7-300 PLC. For software I am using Protool Lite and Step 7 Professional.
What I would like to know is how do i directly trigger an output on the PLC. more specifically how do i create a tag that will trigger output Q124.5 on the PLC.
I was also wondering how can i create a tag to toggle a bit on the touch panel ? For example, i would like to trigger a bit that would activate an output like Q124.5.
Sorry for the newbie like questions, but any help someone could provide would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Barry
