Programming the PLC
4.7 Copying blocks from one project into another
3. Navigate in the reference project to the "Program blocks" folder and select the blocks that
you want to copy.
4. Drag-and-drop the blocks from the reference project to the "Program blocks" folder of your
current project.
Note
Copy additional objects separately (e.g. tags or PLC data types)
When you copy the program blocks, objects that belong together, such as tags, PLC data
types or technology objects, are not automatically included in the copy. This applies both to
copying from reference projects and to copying to another PLC.
Error messages are issued during the compilation, e.g. if the tags used in the copied
program block are not defined in the tag table.
Therefore, additionally copy the objects used by the copied blocks.
