Status/Force Tag Using the OP
The Operator Panels provide two functions, namely Status Tag and Force Tag,
which enable operand values from the connected PLC to be displayed in a
standard screen and modified in a second screen.
This means that PLC operands can be edited directly on the OP in online mode
without having to connect a programming unit to the PLC to do it.
Status Tag enables the status of SIMATIC S5/S7 operands to be displayed.
Force Tag enables SIMATIC S5/S7 operands to be controlled through modify-
ing their values and transferring them back to the PLC.
