Update your settings

Hello Tanya, As Siemens Self Support integrated with SiePortal, to run your C-230 program without the Steuertafel (operator panel), you need to utilize the "Start/Stop" functions within the program itself or configure automatic startup. Here's how: 1. **Program Control:** Implement logic in your program (using function blocks or similar) to initiate and terminate the engine operation. 2. **Automatic Startup:** Configure the system settings (via SiePortal or engineering tool) to automatically start the program on power-up if desired. 3. **PLC Cycle:** Ensure your program is designed to continuously run within the PLC cycle once started, controlling the engine based on your defined logic. For detailed guidance, refer to the C-230 documentation on SiePortal ([https://support.industry.siemens.com/](https://support.industry.siemens.com/)) – search for "C-230 program execution" or "automatic startup". If you encounter issues, please provide your program structure and configuration details for further assistance.
