SIMATIC STEP 7 in the TIA Portal – New editor functions
SCL networks in LAD/FBD
Functions
• SCL networks can be inserted in an LAD (FBD) block.

language can be selected freely within a block, e.g. LAD
for links and SCL for subsequent mathematical
calculations, so that programming becomes considerably
more efficient.
• An SCL network, for example, can now be inserted
instead of the Calculate Box.

Automatic numbering of blocks
Function
• Block numbers required for internal
processing are assigned automatically by the system
(setting in the block properties)
• The system resolves conflicts in the block numbers
automatically, e.g. due to copying processes.
• Conflicts can be resolved automatically by the system -
even for know-how-protected blocks. A password is not
required (prerequisite: Encryption was implemented using
>= V13 SP1)
Benefits:
• User programs can be programmed symbolically
• The user does not have to concern himself with numbers
and number conflicts
Copy and paste
The system renumbers the
blocks and resolves the
conflict during the
translation.
