Specific:
Initial step This option always is activated in the properties of the current initial step (init step).
By default it is activated for the first step in a SFC and deactivated for other steps.
Notice that if you activate this option for another step, you must deactivate it in the
previous init step in order to avoid a compiler error. In this context also notice
command 'Init Step'.
Times:
Note: Notice the possibility to detect timeouts in steps by the SFCError flag.
Minimal active Minimum length of time the processing of this step should take; permissible values:
time according to IEC-syntax (for example t#8s) or TIME variable; default: t#0s.
Maximal active Maximum length of time the processing of this step should take; permissible values:
time according to IEC-syntax (for example t#8s) or TIME variable; default: t#0s
Actions: Define here the actions to be performed when the step is active. Notice the
description of the sequence of processing for details.
Step entry This action will be executed after the step has got active.
Step active This action will be executed when the step is active and possible entry actions have
been already processed.
Step exit This action will be executed in the subsequent cycle after a step has been
deactivated.
Note: Notice the possibility of getting information on step/action status resp.
timeouts etc. via the appropriate implicit variables and SFC flags.
