SEL_S missing in 2023.0 LTS

Hi,
I’m using plcnextengineer 2023.0 LTS with a SPLC1000 and in the safety IEC blocks i cannot find the SEL_S block. Is there another library that has this block? There are 56 block in the safety IEC but no SEL_S.

Not all standard functions blocks have safety equivalents.
Was the SEL_S function block available in an earlier version of PLCnext Engineer? I don’t see it in version 2022.0 either.

Martin,

Just thought I’d add some extra information to this one as it’s a bit of an odd ball.

SEL_S appears in the PLCnext help, but can’t be found in the components area. However if you try and add an SEL_S function to a safety program it lets you add it by typing the name in manually:


So it looks like the function exists, but is hidden from the components area?

Hello Martin, as A Ellis mentioned, the block is listed in the help file for 2023.0 LTS, apparently it is also listed in the help file for 2022.0. Also another question, how would i transfer a value from one SAFEDINT into another, i was looking for a MOVE_S instruction, unfortunately it does not seem to exist, I’m using an ADD_S instruction to make it work for my situation.

I have heard back from the PLCnext Engineer support team.
Apparently you can make these blocks visible by changing the “Language Profile” in the Project menu, then closing and re-opening the project:
Project Menu ');\n mywindow.document.close(); \n mywindow.focus();\n setTimeout(function () {\n mywindow.print();\n mywindow.close();\n }, 1000)\n return true;\n}\r\n\r\n\r\n I hope this helps.

Hello Martin, that worked for me. Thank you!
