Command ‘Init step’

Symbol:

Function: This command converts the selected step into an initial step.

Call: Main menu SFC

After you choose this command, the borders of the step element change to a double line. The previous initial step is automatically displayed as a normal step with a single-line border.

You can also activate and deactivate the property Init step in the properties dialog of a step. However, CODESYS does not automatically adjust the settings of other steps.

This command is useful if you want to convert a diagram. When you create a new SFC object, it automatically includes an initial step followed by a transition (TRUE) and a jump back to the initial step.

Note

Please note: In online mode, it is possible to reset the diagram to the initial step using the SFCInit and SFCReset flags.
