Changing the call type for a DB
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 single-
instance DB and a multi-instance DB.
You can create an instance DB (if an instance DB is
missing or not available).
You can access the "Change call type" command either
by right-clicking the instruction or FB in the program
editor or by selecting the "Block call" command from the
"Options" menu.
The "Call options" dialog allows
you to select a single-instance
or multi-instance DB. You can
also select specific DBs from a
drop-down list of available DBs.
