Functions
Distinguish between functions and functions blocks:

Functions return a single result immediately on execution of the function call.
 Functions do not retain values from previous calls, unlike function blocks

Revision C
It is not possible for the user to define his own functions.

Control module types use
to create PID loops in the
CMD editor.
All modules in this library
may be connected using
graphical connections.
Data type Control Connection (represented by CC)
is used to connect between control modules.
