Specifying a Repeated Block Using Data Linking Commands
You can right-click a block and use Repeated Block commands on the shortcut menu to indicate that a block is a repeat of another block in the diagram.
1. In the diagram, right-click the block and select > .
2. Complete this window and click OK.
In the diagram, the block’s text box is updated. The Repeat of designation indicates the identifier of the block that it repeats.
In the
Links page on the block’s
Calculation Properties window, the properties under
Repeated blocks work just as if the repeat designation was set on this page. For more information, see
Links Page.
Once RBD calculations run, you can view results for the repeated block on the
Results page in its
Calculation Properties window or in the
Calculation Properties window for the block it repeats. For more information, see
Calculations - Results Page.
The interactions that are possible are described in
Interactions of Links and Repeat Blocks. To remove a
Repeat of designation, see
Removing a ‘Repeat of’ Designation.
