In the continuation of exploring the differences while using the tools in a different version, in this lesson we are going to discuss the Dependency Structure. To open the Dependency Structure in the older software version, you simply go to the Call Structure menu and click filter. You will then be presented with the Dependency Structure, which if you recall, shows you where DB's are used with the program as well as other things but it doesn’t show you how many times. However, in TIA Portal, you are shown what is used where as well as how many times it’s used. Let’s check out this lesson and see the differences in the versions.

This lesson continues to explain the use of tools within our programming environment. I will describe how to check for unused tags in both TIA Portal and Step 7. Although the location where you find the tool varies in the two software packages, the search result is the same. That result will show...
In the continuation of our lessons on how to use the tools within our programming environment, this lesson will instruct you on how to find addresses which do not have tags assigned.
This is the opposite of what we found in the previous lessons search for unused tags. This search will show you a...
In this lesson, we continue to instruct on how to use the tools in both Step 7 and TIA Portal.
This discussion is on how resources within the environment. When you load a program to the PLC it requires memory. You need to know both memory in the size of the processor as well as memory where the ...
