Symbol: icon_step_into.png

Keyboard shortcut: [F8]

Function: The command executes the statement where the program is currently located and halts before the next statement.

Call: “Debug” menu

Requirement: The application is in online mode and the program is halted at the current break position (debug mode).

If the executed statement contains a call (from a program, function block instance, function, method, or action), then the program execution jumps to this subordinate POU. Its code opens in a separate editor. The first statement there is executed and the program execution halts before the next statement. The new current breakpoint position is then in the called POU.

Click “Step Over” to remain in the currently active POU and execute the call in one step.
