4.4Inserting Blocks and FB1 and DB10 into the Project

From the template directory or from the Image Processing System SIMATIC VS120 V2.1 CD from the directory "Function Blocks“, de-archive and open the library VS120-2.

Add FB1 and DB10 to the block folder of the project.

Close the library.

Note:

Instead of library VS120-2, we can also de-archive the example program VS120_Examples. The file Vs120_Examples.zip is located on the Image Processing System SIMATIC VS120 V2.1 CD in the directory “Examples“, subdirectory "SIMATIC“
