    Hello, I have a question, very often I create functions and use them only once in a program, just to divide my OB block into clear parts, in my opinion it makes the program clean and readable. In those functions of course, I use access to global data, PLC tags, etc. I'm not sure if this is correct program structure,? you said that inside of functions we should always use function panel and input/output etc. parameters ? By the way graet job, I really like way that you explain PLC programing.

    Hi, I have a Question.... For using the FB and FC as showed in your video and lets say you have a FB with a input "Change Allowed" as an input, now you call the block and you have created an instanced for that FB... Here is my question... that input "change Allowed" can one use that same input for another block lets say FB3 , Can one then pull it in from the Db Instance? is it allowed? can it work like that?
    OR do you have to create one for each FB? if so at the end you have 10 mil. of the same input how will it be linked as one at the end of the day?
