WinCC Unified Systems: Basic Example & Suggestions - WinCC Unified - Dynamizing Text and Textlist objects

Hi,
As from TIA V18 the Text and Texlist objects could be configured with dynamic text, similarly as the feature for alarm text.
In this sense, there are not many news or differences in terms of configuration: to configure it, edit the text as usual, clicking with the right mouse button, and selecting the “insert parameter field”.

of dynamic text in TIA V18? Okay! You're right, TIA V18 brought dynamic text capabilities to Text and Textlist objects, mirroring the alarm text functionality. **Simple Sample:** 1. **Edit Text/Textlist:** Right-click and select "Edit." 2. **Insert Parameter Field:** Right-click within the text, choose "Insert Parameter Field." 3. **Select Variable:** Choose the PLC variable you want to display (e.g., `Main.MyCounter`). 4. **Format (Optional):** Use format strings (e.g., `0000` for leading zeros) within the parameter field selection. That's the basic process! SiePortal has detailed documentation if needed.
