5 Creating a Project
Aims
This chapter explains how you create and open your project. The chapter also
explains criteria with which you can decide whether to work with an S7-Graph FB
or S7-Graph source file.
Steps to Create a Project
All the information about a sequential control system is contained in a STEP 7
project.
Create the project in the SIMATIC Manager and
insert your S7 program
Open the block to program the sequencer(s)
Create an S7 Graph source file Create an S7 Graph FB
5.1 Creating the Project in the SIMATIC Manager
Before you can create your sequencers with S7-Graph, you must first create a
project and then an S7 program within the project. All the blocks for the sequential
control system are saved in this folder.
Creating a New Project
You create a new project in the SIMATIC Manager using the menu command File
> New. As an alternative, from Version 4 onwards, STEP 7 has a wizard that helps
you to create an entire project structure. Select the method you prefer to create a
project.
