Function Blocks are an essential programming tool in PLC programming. This method of programming allows the user to visual tie blocks of code together and utilize functions which aren't available otherwise. Furthermore, certain PLC based logic components are much easier to implement and visualize in function blocks instead of ladder logic or structured text.

One of such implementations is the scaling function. The SCL Instruction can be found in the ladder diagram in RSLogix 500. However, it's not available in ladder logic in RSLogix & Studio 5000. The user is required to use function blocks in order to implement the exact same calculation. Through the use of a Function Block based routine, the implementation can be completed & utilized for the purpose of analog input and output scaling.
