    Hiya,
    in the PLC shell (cf. Picture) multiple RTE commands can be executed for example an application can explicilty be started by the command "startprg APPLICATION".

    Is it possible to send these shell commands from a POU to the shell?

    // PSEUDO CODE
IF condition THEN
 execute plc shell "startprg APPLICATION"
ENDIF

    Many thanks for tipps
    Andrej

    ..some of the commands are encapsulated in library functions but not all of them -
    so it is not possible to call them that way.
