Block
Block is a FBD language component. This command allows inserting operators, functions, function blocks, and programs into scheme. Input and output parameters are displayed in functions and function blocks.
Amount of block's inputs and outputs should be equal to amount of variable's inputs and outputs. This amount is calculated at each name assignment to a component. If nonexistent (incorrect) name was assigned to component, block won't contain inputs and outputs. Error information will be displayed on console after program analysis. There is a field above function blocks. There must be typed function block instance's name.
