Each FB should be called with an instance DB. And thus why the FB comes with red marks when you call it. You have to define the instance data block for your FB. I hope I could understand your question corrctly.

Open your FB, on top you will find a table, here you can assign "Input", "Output", "input-output", "stat" or "Temp" variables. And in FB, you can use these parameters. Best regards, Wizard
