Adding Branches to your RBD

You can model redundant branches in your RBD. This enables you to employ redundancy with non-identical units or non-identical paths. When using branches, the RBD will insert junctions where the branches begin and end. The end junctions have properties associated to indicate the quantity (k) required for operation.

To insert a branch, click Insert>Branch from the toolbar. The Insert Branch dialog appears.

Select the First Block in Branch and Last Block in Branch from the dropdown list of blocks in your diagram. The branch will automatically be drawn with a single new block in it. You can then edit this new branch as desired.
