    ® ABB i-bus Parameters 7.10.39 Composite function blocks If you wish to use the same logic function several times, you can combine and save it in a composite function block. How to create a composite function block: • Create a logic engine with "normal" KNX inputs and outputs, and use Simulation to check that it is working.
  • Page 100 ® ABB i-bus Parameters • The following dialog window appears: Fig. 22: Creating composite function blocks Enter the data saved with the function block. The title must be unique. • Click OK. The composite function block is now stored and recallable in Own function blocks on the left in the Element Selector window.
  • Page 101 ® ABB i-bus Parameters Exporting composite function blocks: • Select the composite function block in Own function blocks. Fig. 23: Exporting own function blocks • Select Export function block. • The following dialog window appears: Fig. 24: Own function blocks - destination file Enter a name for the destination file.
