End a selection branch

1. Select the last transition of each path in the branch. To select the

transitions, do either of these actions.

• Drag the pointer around the transitions that you want to select.
• Click the first transition. Hold down Shift while clicking the rest of the

transitions that you want to select.

2. On the SFC toolbar, click

.

3. Add the step that follows the selection branch.

4. To wire the selection branch to the step, click the top pin of the step

and then click the horizontal line of the branch

. A green dot shows a

valid connection point.

By default, the SFC checks the transitions that start a selection branch from left to
right. If you want to check a different transition first, assign a priority to each path

of the selection branch. For example, it is a good practice to check for error

conditions first. Then check for normal conditions.

1. Right-click the horizontal line that starts the branch and then click Set

Sequence Priorities.
