below.

Undeleting a Branch

When you delete a branch, it is saved in a buffer until you delete another branch. This

new deletion takes the place of the old one in the buffer. You can undelete a branch

structure in the buffer to any location in the project. You are not limited to undeleting

to the same instruction, the same rung, or even the same program file.

Note

The last deleted branch can be undeleted repeatedly as many times as necessary. You

can use this feature to quickly duplicate a branch. The contents of the “delete buffer”

are lost when you exit the ladder editor.

branch.
