Function

The function structure is initially hidden. You can reveal it by toggling the Filter function type element button located in the upper corner of the Substation editor.

The elements Function, SubFunction, EqFunction, and EqSubFunction can only be allocated in specific parent elements. OpenSCD provides guidance in this regard. To check for allocation options, click the Add button next to the parent element and see if any of the options are available, such as for Function.

or so for EqFunction

 

Function type element wizards

All wizards for the elements Function, SubFunction, EqFunction, and EqSubFunction share the same attributes and restrictions. For instance, the Add Function wizard serves as a representative for the others. The wizard dialog enables you to add the following three attributes:

• name: The name of the function.
• desc: A human-readable description of the function.
• type: A user-definable function type.
