FBD/LD/IL Element ‘Branch’¶

Symbol:

The element is available in the LD and FBD editor and represents an open line branch. A line branch splits the processing line from the current cursor position onwards into 2 subnetworks, which are executed in succession from top to bottom. You can branch each subnetwork further, as a result of which multiple branches are created within a network.

Each subnetwork is given a marker symbol (rectangle) at the branch point, which you can select in order to execute further commands.

Note

The commands Copy, Cut and Paste are not available for subnetworks.

In order to delete a subnetwork, you must first delete all elements of the network and then the marker symbol of the subnetwork.
