Eaton easyE4 series User Manual

6. Function blocks
6.3 UF - User function block
l A user function block with different content is already found in easySoft 7. This user
function block is open for editing, meaning that an import is not possible. Do you
want to select a different file?
The following applies to these three scenarios:
No:
The import will be aborted
Yes—
You will be able to select a different file
l A user function block with different content is already found in easySoft 7. Do you
want to replace this user function block with the function block being imported?
No:
You will be able to select a different file
Yes—
The existing function block will be replaced with the imported function block
If the aforementioned checks are all completed successfully, the imported user func-
tion block will be added to the group of user function blocks in easySoft 7.
6.3.9 Replacing a user function block
This function makes it possible to replace a user function block that is being used in the
project with a different user function block with an identical "Interface" configuration.
In order for this menu option to be available, a user function block call must be selected
and the user function block must not be open for editing.
If there are any user function blocks with an "Interface" configuration that matches that
of the selected function block and the latter is not open for editing, the "Replace user
function block" dialog box will appear and the user function blocks that can be selected
as replacements will be shown as a list in a pane.
You can then use the "Replace area" section to specify which user function block calls
should be replaced:
l The selected user function block only
l All instances of the selected user function block in the current program
l All instances of the user function block in all programs
Clicking on the "Replace" button will replace the original user function block instance(s),
i.e., the calls, contacts, and coils for the original user function block will be replaced
with the selected user function block.
If there are no user function blocks with an "Interface" configuration that matches that
of the selected function block available, or if they are open for editing, the following mes-
sage will appear:
"There are no user function blocks that are suitable as a replacement, or they are cur-
rently open for editing."
