7.5.1 Templates for data blocks
The included FM352LIB library contains a block template (UDT) for the different variants of
the machine data DB. Based on this UDT, you can create data blocks with user-specific
numbers and names. You generate channel and diagnostic DBs as instances of FB 1 and
FB 2.
