Posted 23 Dec 2008 hi there and welcome to forum, function blocks resemble digital circuits so for starters you should look at OR, AND, NOT etc blocks. this should be covered in S7 help file as well as any ttl cookbook etc. basic idea is to drop some blocks, connect them and assign inputs and outputs. you may also check download section.

Posted 24 Dec 2008 first time you create Function Block (FB) or Function (FC) in Simatic manager (Block List). Open the your FB or FC and create the program in there, don't forget for define the input, output, or input-output. save the program, and ready to call. Remember FB need Data Block (DB), and FC no need. To call FB or FC is very easy. Only use Call FCxxx. Thx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
