Working with Flowcharts
A strategy is made up of flowcharts, and each flowchart controls different aspects of your automation project.
Keep in mind that a strategy is the software program you create using PAC Control. Each flowchart controls one aspect of the strategy—one piece of the automated process. Since most control applications are complex, the strategy typically has several flowcharts, or charts, that all work together to make up a strategy.
Learn how to work with flowcharts, the building blocks of your strategy, in PAC Control.
