Connect function blocks

If you need do several things in a program, you need several function blocks (FBs) to work and these FBs need to be connected. To connect FBs, you need to switch to the Connection mode.

1. Add another FB and right-click an empty area in the source editor. In the context menu, click Connection mode.

NOTE:  You can also enter the Connection mode through the FBD Bar. By default, the FBD bar is displayed. If not, on the View menu, click Toolbars > FBD Bar.



2. The mouse pointer attaches a connection symbol. Move the pointer to the MoveAbsolute1's Axis output.



3. The mouse pointer becomes a cross when it contacts the output. Drag a line to MoveAbsolute2's AxisIn input.





4. Both FBs's Axis are connected.
