2. Assign a function blocks to the template block. Double-click on the
template block to view all the blocks that match this block type in your
project.

5. Replace all the template blocks with function blocks from your project.
To wire manually:

the AO.
3. Connect the BKCAL_OUT parameter of the AO to the BKCAL_IN
