The Tools Menu

UDFB (User Defined Function Block) Menu

This menu gives you control over the various tools available
when you’re creating or editing a UDFB. There are compile
and build options available for both execution and simulation
purposes because each creates its own variant of the UDFB
and saves it in the corresponding library. See Table 2.5 on
page 13
for a detailed list and explanation of the items on the
UDFB menu.
