NC VAR selector

Introduction
The external tool "NC VAR Selector" obtains addresses of the required NC tags and
processes them for access in the PLC program (PUT [FB3] and GET [FB2]).
● In the NC VAR Selector, you can select the required NC and drive tag addresses and
save them as ASCII file (*.STL) (Page 150).
● In the TIA Portal, you can import this STL file (Page 152), use it to create data blocks and
to make program access to the tags.
