function block adapter Last modified: Friday, June 01, 2007

Abbreviated as FBA a function block adapter provides the interfaces to ports, to function blocks, and a description of the mapping between these interfaces. The function block adapter also provides the connection of UML capsules and function blocks (FBs) of the IEC 61131-3 (the standard for PLC programming languages). See also function block (FB).

Consistency During the Design of FP Adapters (PDF) The focus of this paper lies in a consistent design of Function Block Adapters (FBAs). Function Block Programming (PDF) Function Block Diagrams (FBDs) are another part of the IEC 61131-3 standard. The primary concept behind a FBD is data flow. Function Blocks In engineering disciplines, especially within time driven systems, software languages are often based on function blocks. By Torsten Heverhagen, Robert Hirschfeld, Rudolf Tracht.
