Hello,

I have declared a couple of global variables as shown below. These variables are user-defined structures.

How come these variables aren’t recognized properly? What am I doing wrong here?

Upfront many thanks!

I understand that this has now been solved in collaboration with your local Phoenix Contact technical support team.
Global variables must also be declared as „external“ variables in any POU that uses them.
