<div class="markdown_content"><p>dont mind all these extra texts.</p> <p>A function block has its inputs and outputs, and a program can not have this.<br/> so you must check the VAR list and change the inputs to the normal var and same for outputs.</p> <p>better is however to call the FB in your main program and when debugging you can click on the FB and see it actually working.</p> <p>I still make the same mistake to make the program and then realise i have to do it in a FB.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi,</p> <p>I want to convert a SFC FB to a PROGRAM.<br/> Tried to copy/paste steps but it didn't work. <br/> So I exported the FB to .exp file, and then edited the .exp file with Notepad - just changed <br/> "FUNCTION_BLOCK Test" to "PROGRAM Test" at he beginning, and<br/> "END_FUNCTION_BLOCK" to "END_PROGRAM" at the end.<br/> Then I deleted the FB from the project and imported the edited .exp file.</p> <p>So now I have it as a PROGRAM, the project compiles OK, but is this safe?<br/> There are some things in the .exp file that I don't understand, namely</p> <hr/> <p>(<em> @OBJECTFLAGS := '0, 8' </em>)<br/> (<em> @SYMFILEFLAGS := '2048' </em>)</p> <hr/> <p>What is the meaning of these flags and do they depend on the type of POU? </p> <p>Thanks</p></div>
