on the functionality of the tools (Portal view), or a project-oriented view of the elements within
the project (Project view). Choose which view helps you work most efficiently. With a single
click, you can toggle between the Portal view and the Project view. Portal view
① Portals for the different tasks
② Tasks for the selected portal
③ Selection panel for the selected
action
  

④ Changes to the Project view With all of these components in one place, you have easy access to every aspect of your
project. For example, the inspector window shows the properties and information for the
object that you have selected in the work area. As you select different objects, the inspector
window displays the properties that you can configure. The inspector window includes tabs
that allow you to see diagnostic information and other messages. By showing all of the editors that are open, the editor bar helps you work more quickly and
efficiently. To toggle between the open editors, simply click the different editor. You can also
arrange two editors to appear together, arranged either vertically or horizontally. This feature
allows you to drag and drop between editors. STEP 7 provides task cards that contain the instructions for your
program. The instructions are grouped according to function.
To create your program, you drag instructions from the task card
onto a network. STEP 7 provides a "Favorites" toolbar to give you quick access to the instructions that you
frequently use. Simply click the icon for the instruction to insert it into your network!
(For the "Favorites" in the instruction tree, doubleclick
the icon.) You can easily customize the
"Favorites" by adding new
instructions.
Simply drag and drop an
instruction to the "Favorites".
The instruction is now just a click
away! The Calculate instruction lets you create a math function that operates on multiple input
parameters to produce the result, according to the equation that you define.
In the Basic instruction tree, expand the Math functions folder.
Double-click the Calculate instruction to insert the instruction
into your user program. The unconfigured Calculate
instruction provides two input
parameters and an output
parameter.
Click the "???" and select the data types for the input and output
parameters. (The input and output parameters must all be the same
data type.)
For this example, select the "Real" data type. For this example, enter the following equation for scaling a raw analog value. (The "In" and
"Out" designations correspond to the parameters of the Calculate instruction.)
Out value = ((Out high - Out low) / (In high - In low)) * (In value - In low) + Out low
Out = ((in4 - in5) / (in2 - in3)) * (in1 - in3) + in5
Where: Out value (Out) Scaled output value
In value (in1) Analog input value
In high (in2) Upper limit for the scaled input value
In low (in3) Lower limit for the scaled input value
Out high (in4) Upper limit for the scaled output value
Out low (in5) Lower limit for the scaled ouput value
In the "Edit Calculate" box, enter the equation with the parameter names:
OUT = ((in4 - in5) / (in2 - in3)) * (in1 - in3) + in5 When you click "OK", the Calculate
instruction creates the inputs
required for the instruction.
Enter the tag names for the values
that correspond to the parameterSome of the instructions allow you to create additional inputs or outputs.
● To add an input or output, click the "Create" icon or right-click on an input stub for one of

the existing IN or OUT parameters and select the "Insert input" command.
● To remove an input or output, right-click on the stub for one of the existing IN or OUT
parameters (when there are more than the original two inputs) and select the "Delete"
command. Some of the more complex instructions are expandable, displaying only the key inputs and
outputs. To display the inputs and outputs, click the arrow at the bottom of the instruction. The development and release cycles for certain sets of instructions (such as Modbus, PID
and motion) have created multiple released versions for these instructions. To help ensure
compatibility and migration with older projects, STEP 7 allows you to choose which version
of instruction to insert into your user program. Click the icon on the instruction tree task card to enable the
headers and columns of the instruction tree.
To change the version of the instruction, select the
appropriate version from the drop-down list. You can select a variety of settings,
such as the appearance of the
interface, language, or the folder for
saving your work.
Select the "Settings" command from
the "Options" menu to change these

"Split editor" menu commands or buttons in
the toolbar. Refer to
The CPU does not have a physical switch for changing the operating mode (STOP or RUN).
Use the "Start CPU" and "Stop CPU" toolbar buttons to change the operating
mode of the CPU.
When you configure the CPU in the device configuration, you configure the start-up behavior
in the properties of the CPU. The "Online and diagnostics" portal also provides an operator panel for changing the
operating mode of the online CPU. To use the CPU operator panel, you must be connected
online to the CPU. The "Online tools" task card displays an operator panel that shows the
operating mode of the online CPU. The operator panel also allows you to change the
operating mode of the online CPU.
Use the button on the operator panel to change the operating mode
(STOP or RUN). The operator panel also provides an MRES button for
resetting the memory.
The color of the RUN/STOP indicator shows the current operating mode of the CPU. Yellow
indicates STOP mode, and green indicates RUN mode.
Refer to Operating Modes of the CPU in the System Manual (Page 69) for
configuring the default operating mode on power up. STEP 7 allows you to easily create or change the
association of a DB for an instruction or an FB that is in
an FB.
 You can switch the association between different DBs.
 You can switch the association between a singleinstance
DB and a multi-instance DB.
 You can create an instance DB (if an instance DB is
missing or not available).
