Add a Block
Blocks are defined by the field
device manufacturer and
described in the DD files.
There are three classes of blocks:

block:
•
Ports on the left of the function blocks are inputs.

Ports on the right of the function blocks are outputs.
For detailed descriptions and uses of each block, refer to the user manual of the
