Convenient editors in STEP 7
The OPC UA client instructions are described in detail in the reference part (STEP 7
information system). For parameter assignment of the instructions, a convenient editor is
available in the TIA Portal – the connection parameter assignment (Page 268).
We recommend starting with the connection parameter assignment for the first program draft
and using additional instructions and manually optimizing the program as required.
