Inserting a Library Task into a Block’s Calculation Properties
You can use the Library Browse window to insert any task that is stored in an RBD Maintenance Library file into the calculation properties for a System file block. Using this insertion method is the same as copying the properties for an existing task in one block and pasting them into the properties for a new task in another block.
1. In the RBD Table in the System file, select the diagram record.
2. In the diagram, select the block.
3. Select RBD > Browse Libraries. The Library Browse window opens in the pinned mode.
