Function Codes – Introduction
COMPOUNDS:
Function blocks in a database can be compounded (grouped) into a single group. This may
be done to functionally or visually organize the blocks in a database. Compounds can be
created at the top level or inside loop compounds. To compound a set of function blocks,
first select them and then select Objects – Compound from the ViZapp menu bar. When a
compound is made it creates a sub-level in the function block diagram and places the
blocks inside that level.
Figure 1 .5.
Open Compound
The compound looks like a function block. See the above figure. To view the blocks,
select the compound and then right-click on the mouse to show a context sensitive menu
as shown in the above figure and then select Open – Compound.
If there were connections existing between the blocks that were compounded and other
blocks in the database, these connections are translated into jump objects inside the
compound.
