Tag selection with NC VAR selector

8.1 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 158).
● In the TIA Portal, you can import this STL file (Page 160), use it to create data blocks and
so make program access to the tags.

● A detailed description for the NC VAR Selector is contained in the P3 section of the
