In EPLAN, a macro is a saved snippet of a circuit. Think of it like a Function Block (FB) in the S7-1200. Just as you wouldn't rewrite a PID control loop from scratch for every motor, you shouldn't redraw the wiring for an S7-1214C every time.
You’ll never draw an S7-1200 from scratch again. Do you use EPLAN macros with Siemens TIA Portal? Have you tried using the "PLC Macro Box" for Profinet devices? Let me know in the comments below. macros eplan siemens s7-1200
This means your TIA Portal tag table and your EPLAN schematic are now mirror images without manual typing. In EPLAN, a macro is a saved snippet of a circuit
But what if you could generate your EPLAN schematic directly from your TIA Portal configuration? Or, at the very least, cut your design time by 70%? The answer lies in . You’ll never draw an S7-1200 from scratch again
When you build your macro, assign the symbolic names in the EPLAN macro properties. When you insert the macro into a new project, EPLAN will ask for a "Structural identifier" (e.g., =Conveyor1). Type it once. EPLAN automatically renames all tags inside the macro to "Conveyor1_Motor_1_Run".
