Concept V2.5

Lesson 13 Objectives:After completing this lesson, the learner will be

able to: Use the Project Browser to create sections. Create a new section for programming in FBD. Locate, insert and connect Function Blocks in an

FBD Section. Utilize the built-in Help files to determine the

operating characteristics of a given Function Block.

Concept V2.5

The Project Browser

Concept V2.5 Project Browser Functionality

Sections

• Create, Open, Delete/clear sections (apply editor) Change section properties (name, comment) Change execution order

Section Groups

• Create, Open, Rename, Delete (show substructure), Close section group (hide substructure), Search section groups/sections in the Project Browser, Move section groups / sections (changes execution order!)

Open Configurator Windows:

• open, close, minimize/maximize, Set window size Animate enable states (animation of structure tree) Switch enable/disable state

Concept V2.5

Click one FFB in FBD Section This FFB can be replaced: Objects Replace FFBs If number and names of formal

operands (Data Types) are identical, no object will be lost.

Concept V2.5

Double click on FFB, show EN/ENO: Any FFB (DFB) will be executed only if

EN = 1 (Saves scan time) If EN/ENO is not displayed then EN has

the default value of EN = 1 ENO = 1 indicates the correct and

successful execution

EN / ENO Special Input / Output

Concept V2.5 Logic Format

FBI_9_1 (1)

Default Function Block Instance name _9. created section _1. invoked EFB(can be changed by the user).

(1) First executed Function Block in the execution order. (Display can be turned off)

.9.3 (2)

Default function identifier (cannot be changed): .9. created section. .3. invoked EFB

(2) Second executed Function Block in execution order. (Display can be turned off)
