  • Page 189: Profile Function

    Profile Function The the RMC module supports up to 25 profiles with each having up to 10 steps each. In some applications there is a need to execute a profile multiple times with varying frequency within multiple Profiles. When and if this need arises, rather than creating the same steps over and over again it would be wise to think of using a Subroutine.
