Creating and Removing Connectors

Note

This instruction applies only to SWCs specified as block diagrams.

This instruction does not apply to connectors and block-local sequence calls in statement blocks.

To create a connector from a normal sequence call, proceed as follows:

  1. Right-click the sequence call you want to change into a connector.

  2. Select Connector from the context menu.

    The sequence call becomes a connector. This can be connected with a control flow instruction. The sequence number is reset to 1.

    Note

    If several connectors are connected to the same control flow instruction, each connector must have a unique number.

  3. Connect the connector to a suitable control-flow element.

  4. If necessary, edit the sequence number.

    Connectors can be edited like sequence calls in the Sequence Editor (see Editing the Sequence Call in the Sequence Editor). The Next free button and the Method/Process Name field are, however, deactivated. Double-clicking the connector and the context menu Next Number also open the Sequence Editor.

To remove a connector, proceed as follows.

  1. Right-click the connector and select Connector from the context menu.

    The connector becomes a normal sequence call. The sequence number is reset to 0, no method or process is selected.

  2. Edit the sequence call.
