Addressing safety ⚠️ PLC cards in EPLAN. SIEMENS F-DI card
This EPLAN P8 Tutorial is about how to address automatically safety PLC cards in EPLAN. The problem with safety PLC cards is that they occupy additional input and output range (doesn't matter if they are input cards or output cards). The additional address range can be added in the parts management. As an example, I use a 16 F-DI card from SIEMENS in this video.

EPLAN P8 I How to place a report manually🤔❓
Good video. Does the same apply for ET200SP-F cards or S7-1200-F?
Yes, sure it works for all cards which occupies additional IO range.
@@eplaninanutshell Yeah thanks. :) I checked and AI-F should be 14 bytes - 112 bits. I would really appreciate a video in which you would do complete PLC + REMOTE IO ET200 (with bus module) + HMI(!) + SWITCH configuration and than export it to Tia Portal. I know you have some videos on some of the steps.. but yeah this PLC configurations are really something else. Cant get AML to work.
Same as usual you provide us with valuable and priceless information. We can’t thank you enough for that. Personally, I have learned a lot from your insightful videos . I am currently about to finish my first ever project with Eplan. I hope I can share it with you for better advice. Said that, what if we integerate the eplan with tia portal via aml file- I don’t think we still need to modify the parts management as you have shown. Awaits your reply. Thank you so much
Not so bad English :) Content is great. Keep your work flow. Thx
Please make a video to cover all important reports; such as PLc diagrams, Cable diagram, symbols overview, panel legend… etc in one video
What exactly do you want to know? How to generate the reports? Or what is the sense or function of a report? Or the settings?
@ Thanks for your reply. Basically what are the important reports ( which they should appear in each project) , how to modify and generate reports ? For example, I generated the symbol overview, it shows weird symbols . Also, how to show the panel legend next to the 2panel ( same page) maybe choose the right form…. The cabling report, same as the one you show🙌 Thanks you once again for your reply
Hello! How could I define connection in EPLAN as busbar connection without connection definition point? I can define connection via logic of devices' connection points or connection definition point. I couldn't define connection as busbar connection via logic of devices' connections and I can't use connection definition point because I need place and define connections by automatic numbering of connections.
I like the excell import explanation. Drag&drop And the coloring option. Perfect and well done 🤗
Thanks for your feedback and I'm happy to hear that you find it usefull
I made a macro for a PLC. There was a block with a code for ordering, which I described what each letter of the code means. I did this in version 2.9. However, when I tried to transfer the macro to version 2024, the text does not match, it seems that the spacing between the letters in a row has changed. The scale and font are the same in both versions. How can I configure it so that it is the same in different versions? I also have the same problem in the framework.
Thanks king helped a lot
Thanks for your feedback and I'm happy that my video was helpful 😎
thanks for your efforts, i face a really big problem: When i finish modifying / editing a symbol >> when i start calling it, i only find the old one ... is there anything i can do to update the library with the new modification ???
1000× faster in case of a short circuit, that is definitely ultrafast ⚡
That's true. And that's the reason why you can use it again after a short circuit happen. Wear-free 😎
why the overvirew does not work with analogue input, it does not view the function text neither does the symbolic address
gained a like i forgot how to and found your video!👍
Thanks for your comment 😎
Hello Kai, is there an option to have a variable image inserted -without having the dedicated title page for each project/machine? Because if you just insert it, it is of course deleted when .pdf is exported/reports are generated..
Can you give me a bit more information? You want to place an Image on the title page but always a different one?
@@eplaninanutshell Yes, same title page for all the different machines, I would change just the machine render picture. But, from what I understand doing a title page with correct image and selecting it in the project settings is the easiest thing to do.
Can i use eplan for free with all Features؟؟
Now if only they sold them in North America. 😢
very slow explains
Please make a vedio on Revision control
We 💕
Good ❤❤❤❤...
Please arrange how to edit the title page and also how to import parts in Eplan
Please part number provided and full details video
Does this not work with multi level terminals?
You saved my day here. Thank you very much
Thanks for your feedback. 😎 enjoy today 😉
How to change the colour of contact image cross reference
Hello bro. Ist diese Function verfügbar in Eplan 2022 auch oder nur in 2025 ? Danke im voraus.
Ab 2025 verfügbar
@ danke
If there is more cores in a cable that I don't need to use, I usually represent cable as bundle and spare cores I show as "wire termination, insulated" (NCI symbol). BTW, I'm self thought user of EPLAN, so maybe this is completely wrong method, but I do it that way.
in eplan can we create one master project file and from that master file we need to derive other many projects.... and that project files we need to link to master file.... if we change in master file it should change in linked project file also.. is there any solutions like that
In the Atex world spare cores must be terminated if they are in a hazardous area
Thanks, good additional information 👍
I wanted to do DT auto nubering in row wise, how i can do that.can you suggest please.
Amazing. I needed that today. Thank you for all your videos
Good to hear that my Video brings you value. Thanks for your feedback 👍
I would like to use command line parameter: PathsScheme:MyConfigDirectories while starting EPLAN to load my user directories upon startup. Where shoud I place the directories schems during export. Should it be placed here? "C:\Program Files\EPLAN\Electric P8\2025.0.3\Bin" I have tried, but not succeded. Can you please make a video to show the way?
Is there a way to automatize process of exporting to PDF when you have 10 or more files to export ?
Класс очень доходчиво и понятно)
but this breaks the text only where it finds space between two words. what if there is no space and only '-' mark. in that case can I adjust the text this way?
Excellent tutorial but why not just copy the cable from the source and and make it a non-main function? Also, wouldn't you achive the same thing with connection points?
Basically you're right. But depending on your message management setting your solution will create fault messages because you have two connection points on one connection. If you don't use this message it's fine
@eplaninanutshell I can have two cable definition where one is main function and the other is non-main function. Will this create a error message? Just to be clear, there was no critique against you, just curiosity. I watch your tutorials often and find them very helpful.
@KlingKlang81 I don't feel like criticized by you 😎
Sir I appreciate your efforts for the great content but Please make some basic plc wiring videos on eplan so we can upgrade our skills to the next level.hope you answer my query.
Is your question how to connect PLC and IO cards or how to handle this in EPLAN?
@eplaninanutshell first of all thank you for your consideration, Sir I am a beginner in eplan so I want basics of plc wiring in eplan from importing of io card to wiring of relay board, hope you understood my concern.
You're doing a fantastic job! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
How can I download this software sir ?
TIA Portal or EPLAN?
The world's best EPLAN content creator.
Thank you Sir 😊
@@eplaninanutshell That's a fantastic suggestion! Creating a detailed video series on 3D panel design in EPLAN, starting from importing .STP files to routing and all the intricate details, would be incredibly helpful for many users. It could walk through best practices, tips, and even troubleshooting, making it easier for others to adopt 3D panel design workflows efficiently. Such a series could also bridge the gap for those transitioning from 2D schematics to a fully integrated 3D environment. Thanks for sharing this idea it has immense potential to benefit the EPLAN community!
Hello Kai, my cables arent attaching to components automatically. Is this a setting I need to turn on? They just cut through components and I want to avoid spending unecesary time adding each cable manually
Hello Kai. If you miss a topic for a video I could recommend the following. If you run a test for use of a structure in the structure identifier you sometimes find a structure which is not been used any more but test indicates it is used maybe 2 times in the project. I know sometimes it disappears if you compress project, but sometimes it is hidden in a navigator. So a video to find this structure will be appriciated.
Hi Kai, been watching for sometime. This seems to be Macros, but project specific and interacting with multiple pages / models all at the same time. Is there something like this for Eplan Electric P8 2025 without pro panel? We don't have this available to use with our current configuration unless I'm missing something.
Hi, it also works without ProPanel. You can just use multi-line pages or what ever is needed
@@eplaninanutshell Not sure whats missing, but I don't seem to have this feature with standard Electric P8 2025. Any thoughts?
Hello Kai, Thank you very much for your extensive tutorials on EPLAN, which I have started following. I am using EPLAN 2025 Education version, since I had trouble trying to open sample projects with the 2024 version. I am experiencing a lot of difficulty in following your tutorials, due to the fact that EPLAN has decided to implement, what I consider to be this ridiculous new Ribbon Interface, instead of the much more natural and sensible menu-based GUI. In order to follow your tutorials, I am in fact having to run it on a separate (Linux) laptop, with a separate additional monitor (using my right hand) and EPLAN on a Winedoz laptop (using my left hand.) Owing to this, I find that I have to continuously stop/start your tutorial so that I can find where on earth the corresponding menu items have been hidden one of these ridiculous ribbons. Apart from this, EPLAN has also decided to rename some of the menu items, making it extremely time-consuming and frustration to make any progress. Example: OLD: Utilities menu NEW: Tools Ribbon Example: OLD: Project data -> Terminals NEW: Devices Ribbon -> Terminals Example: All of the project settings and preferences have been completely shuffled around Further to this, I believe that a large percentage of computer users make use of the hot-keys which are typically identified under respective menu items. Regardless of which operating system I use, when I am learning a new application, I try to learn some of the frequently-used hot-keys, which significantly speeds up my progress. I tried to find a way to change the User Interface back to the original menu-based interface, however, see that EPLAN has removed this option from the Select Workspace setting menu. I cannot understand what the EPLAN designers are trying to achieve be making much more difficult for people to learn. If, in their wisdom regarding modern GUI development they have decided that the ribbon approach is more user-friendly, they should maybe consider that this should be user-selectable, rather than forcing the will of the mighty MicroSoft geniuses onto the world. Is it really so complicated and difficult to make the old menu-based interface available? I want to make it clear that this is not in criticism of your tutorials, and I also consider that you may possibly now be faced with the decision of whether or not to rework your entire set of tutorials to comply with the the wisdom of the gods of GUI. I have no choice to persevere, and really appreciate your tutorials. Thank you.
Hi cay could you do video on symbol creation, editing,delet,in eplan
Hai cay how are you I hope doing well I am daily watching your video it's nice to learn to develop ours knowledge and skills thanks to doing this kind of video keep it up 😊
Cant see *hit bro.
Hello Kai! Thanks for the video. It could be possible to do the same thing for the analog I/O or safe I/O? For DI or DO I see it's possible because there are only one type of plc connection point: DI or DO. For differents PLC manufacturer (Siemens, Omron or Allen Bradley), DI or DO are OK. But for analogs I/O or safe I/O there are more types of PLC connection point for each chanel (PLC+, PLC-, PLC PE, etc...). Moreover, each manufacturer are different PLC point connection for this type of I/O. It could be possible to do this for the Analog I/O and Safe I/O?
Hi man I am learning German language to better be in touch with German technicians
Would you please tell job vacancy in Eplan
Hello Kai, I did everything the same, but after terminals 1, 2 and 3 on the PE the number 1 comes again, not 4
