Export of the Symbol Table

Top Previous Next

For the export of the symbol table there are no special steps necessary in TrySim because TrySim saves the table in a format that can be read by STEP ®7 immediately. But you should save the project so that also your last changes of the symbol table can be taken over.

•	Start STEP ®7. If you have not created a project yet you will have to do this now.

•	Open the symbol table in the box Project\|Station\|CPU\|S7-Program.

The lines of the TrySim symbol table are added to the already existing ones in the STEP ®7 – table. If addresses or symbols can be found twice by that they will be in bold type and you have to delete them separately by hand or rename them. If your list in TrySim contains all needed symbols you shall delete all lines in the STEP ®7 – table before importing. Select Edit|Select|All and press the key ‘Del’ afterwards.

•	Select the menu item Table\|Import.

•	Select the file type ‘ASCII – Format ( *.ASC)’.

•	The symbol table of TrySim is called ‘SYMLIST.ASC’ and is in the project directory. The complete path is named (if you have accepted the instructions of the installation) C:\Programs\TrySim\Projects\Your Project.

•	Select the file and click ‘Open’.

•	Now all lines of the TrySim-symbol table should appear in the table.
