Assigning Names and Execution Orders to Function Blocks

Each function block in an FBD program must be assigned a
unique name and execution order. To assign a name to a
function block:

1.

Select the

[Selector]

tool.

2.

Double-click on the function block you wish to name.
This causes the

Assign Name to Func. Block

dialog

box to appear as shown in Figure 9.4

3.

Enter a unique name for the function block into the

Name

field. You can click

[List]

to view all the function

block names already assigned in the program.

NOTE!

If you do not assign a name to a function block,
LogicPro will assign a unique name to the new
function block for you.

NOTE!

The maximum length of a function block name is
ten (10) alphanumeric characters.
