User-defined web pages
The S7-1200 Web server also provides the means for you to create your own application-
specific HTML pages that incorporate data from the PLC. You create these pages using the
HTML editor of your choice and download them to the CPU where they are accessible from
the standard Web page menu. This process involves several tasks:
●
Creating HTML pages with an HTML editor, such as Microsoft Frontpage (Page 493)
●
Including AWP commands in HTML comments in the HTML code (Page 494):The AWP
commands are a fixed set of commands that Siemens provides for accessing CPU
information.
●
Configuring STEP 7 to read and process the HTML pages (Page 507)
●
Generating blocks from the HTML pages (Page 507)
●
Programming STEP 7 to control the use of the HTML pages (Page 508)
●
Compiling and downloading the blocks to the CPU (Page 509)
●
Accessing the user-defined Web pages from your PC (Page 510)
