Command 'Import PLCopenXML'dl-permalink__symbolPermalink

Function: This command opens a dialog box for importing objects from an XML file in PLCopen format.

Call: Menu “Project”

Requirement: A project is open.

Dialog box 'Import PLCopenXML'

The dialog box lists all objects from the PLCopen export file that CODESYS can import at this point.

“Currently selected target object”

Object that is selected in the Device tree

“Insertable items”

Displays all objects of the export file that CODESYS can insert below the selected object.

The PLCopenXML scheme does not permit VAR_GLOBAL and VAR_GLOBAL CONSTANT POUs to be in the same variable list. Therefore, if you wish to export both, the variables must first be divided into two separate variable lists.
