Introduction to My Blocks

Notice that the ‘Arm Workcell - With Sensors’ example project also includes the addition of My Blocks. My Blocks are used to create a sequence of blocks that can be used multiple times throughout a project.

‘Arm Workcell - With Sensors’ example project.

In our project, My Blocks will be used to define how the conveyors should move in the Workcell once a particular color of disk is detected by the Optical Sensor.

For example, when the Optical Sensor detects a red disk, the {define Red Detected} hat block will be executed. Using My Blocks helps to organize a project as well as better understand project flow.

When the Optical Sensor detects a red disk, the hat block will be executed.
