Example: Dosing
The RUN sequence of the "Dosing" phase ends when the dosing quantity is achieved and then
independently starts the first step of the COMPLETING sequence. The equipment phase is
executed after the start command and moves through the sequences STARTING-RUN-
COMPLETING-COMPLETED triggered by conditions that depend on the process and not on
operator intervention or SIMATIC BATCH.

The property "self-terminating or non-self-terminating equipment phase" can be configure at
the SFC type for all instances or at all SFC instance blocks. This involves the block input contact
"SELFCOMP".
SELFCOMP=1: Self-terminating equipment phase
7.1.4.5 Non-self-terminating equipment phase
Definition
Non-self-terminating equipment phases are sequences that are not completed by a process
condition. The end of the RUN sequence is only reported (Ready_TC) so that this equipment
phase can be completed by an external command. This command can given either by the
operator using the "Close" in the SFC faceplate or by SIMATIC BATCH with the "Close"
command.
