Machine Control: Activity 3.1.4 Branch Functions

• In this activity we used branch functions to learn how we could better use RoboPRO in a more advanced way and how branch functions could actually be implemented in later projects.
• I worked with Michael on this activity, Michael did most of the work on the software and I put together most of the wiring and components and took the pictures. 

•  Using branch functions allows for you to build programs or systems that can react to input and preform accordingly.
•  An example of a normally open switch that was not given as an example could be the ignition of a car. When the car is not running or starting it is open.
•  A normally closed switch that was not given as an example could be the PSU on a computer. It is continuously converting electricity when it is plugged in and the only time it is not is when you physically flip the switch off on the back or unplug it.
