How to Create Custom Libraries or Function Blocks in ProWORX NxT?

Question:

Are you familiar with creating custom libraries or function blocks in ProWORX NxT? I have a ProWORX NxT project backup that includes a unique block named "FN04" not found in the standard library. Can anyone guide me on how to access and interpret the function or description of this block? Your help is much appreciated. Thank you.

Although I have limited experience with Proworx, I believe that what you are looking for are Macros, not functions. Macros function similarly to function blocks in Proworx. Simply create a Macro, input the necessary addresses, and establish your logic. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask.

In the Utilities section of the Loadable Library, you can find blocks that need to be imported into your code. This is the place to look for the specific elements you need.

Indeed, the custom function blocks within Proworx NXT are quite unique. Though I can't tell you explicitly about the FN04 block without access to your project, it generally stands for a user-defined block which isn't part of the standard library. Typically, these blocks are developed for operators to address unique consolidation needs and reduce redundancy. Your best bet would be to locate the creator or the engineer who worked on the project because they might have documented it within the project itself or can explain it personally. If that option isn't accessible, manual analysis will be necessary, so understanding the ins and outs of ProWORX NxT will be crucial.

Sure, I've worked with ProWORX NxT quite a bit. This unique block "FN04" which you're mentioning seems like a customized function block specific to that project. You can access this block by opening the backup project and searching for the block name in its respective namespace. As for interpretation, without knowing its functionality or seeing its contents, it would be difficult for anyone to provide an accurate description. Usually, its function can be gathered by looking at its Input/Output parameters, internal logic and comments added by the developer. If those don't give you a clear understanding, it might be beneficial to reach out to the person who created the block or the project originally. They would have the context needed for a meaningful explanation.
