Primary reason for me to use FBs, I hate merkers. But that's more or less a 'how to structure this' issue. I want to use as less merkers as possible. Regarding the local variables of the FB, I always use the following notations: Input : i_"Tag_name" Output: q_"Tag_name" InOut: iq_"Tag_name" Static: "Tag_name" Temp: t_"Tag_name" Constant: "TAG_NAME" If your code is clear, everybody can see if it's a binary value, int, word, real, etc, but it's hard to see the difference between a IO, static or temp variable.That's why I use this system. But every structure is better than no structure. Keep up the good work! Regards, Alex

Thanks for your explanation Alex, I almost use the exact same tag name convention as yourself 😃. As for merkers, you are correct, they should be avoided at all costs. Build structured data in Datablocks instead.

how do you use the function blocks? how did you get a pump section? where did FB- Control pump come from?

@PLCskilltree Месяц назад

Hi David, The meaning of this tutorial is not to explain the application that I am using, it is to point out some important insights and tips on function blocks in general.

Have done your programming & HMI course and i have to say , they are best ones out there. Not to many go into detail on you actually structure a program. Will there be any more in the future?

@PLCskilltree 2 года назад

Thanks Martin for your feedback, great to hear that you like the courses. Yes structuring has always been one of my focus points when developping software applications and a structured approach to programming has helped me a lot throughout my career. At the moment I have no other courses planned, trying to setup my own online courses website at www.plcskilltree.com. Once I get that up and running and get marketing in place for those courses, I will definitely consider more courses. So stay tuned, subscribe to the channel here if you haven´t done it yet because new courses will definitely be announced here. -Hans

problem of the FB's is that in fact you have double memmory usage. Each input and output are stored in instance memmory. You have UDT as "iq" parameter and you store same memmory in global variable as well in your instance..so you expend you memmory usage. So i exceed the work memmory limit by creating "big" projects ( 50 valve's , 20 motors, 40 Switches etc...) Solution: replaced all to the FC's and use the counter for count the time and its reduce my memmory usage at least to 40%... :) I still think that the best praxis to use the FB's only in OOP (example TwinCat/Beckhoff) there you can create the object(class) and work almost without "global variables" and you will avoid double usage of the memmory as well many benefits from OOP.

Using the InOut of an FB only passes the UDT through to the FB, like a gateway (=call-by-reference). Using the Input and Output of an FB required copying to and from the instance data of the FB = requires extra resources. I only use FCs for small repetitive tasks that don’t require static memory, like small calculations, conversions, or scaling operations. I use practically only FBs in my projects (and they get very big) and I never had problems with work memory (retained memory is a different conversation)

Hello there, i wanna buy you tia course this hmi and plc is this still available and also if ever buy this course and i want to ask something about the plc and hmi how do i reach you so that i can ask you when im understand some topics thank you

@PLCskilltree 2 года назад

Hi Nelson, you can find the bundle (PLC and HMI course) right here: www.plcskilltree.com/bundles/tia-portal-all-basics This is the best value for money. You can buy each course separately as well. When you take the course, you can ask questions directly inside the course (by using the "Discussions" area of each lecture). You will see, it´s quite easy to navigate the course and ask questions when you like.
