Program blocks for OUC
Using the program blocks for Open User Communication (OUC)
You can use the instructions (program blocks) listed below for direct communication between
S7 stations.
In contrast to other communication types, Open User Communication does not need to be
enabled in the configuration of the CP because corresponding program blocks need to be
created for this. You will find details on the program blocks in the information system of
STEP 7.

Different program block versions
Note that in STEP 7 you cannot use different versions of a program bloc
k in a station.
