Example — Codesys Sfc
The transition to Step 0 required Acid_Level < 5% . But the drain valve closed after 2 seconds because the "DIP" step's action had been deactivated. She forgot: Actions in SFC only run while their step is active.
Lena pointed at the HMI. "No. The SFC saved it. Look—step history." codesys sfc example
Then she wrote a parallel :
15:47:32.100 - Enter Step 20 (DIP) 15:47:32.105 - Timer started: 45s 15:48:17.200 - Temp fault detected 15:48:17.205 - Exit Step 20 15:48:17.210 - Enter Step 99 (EMERGENCY_RETRACT) 15:48:21.400 - Acid level <5% 15:48:21.405 - Enter Step 0 (IDLE) The coil was perfect. The acid was safe. And Lena finally understood the power of SFC in CODESYS: The transition to Step 0 required Acid_Level < 5%
