What is FD Port under Parameters in control builder?
In control builder while creating the Function Block Type we have a tab named "FD Port" under parameters. What does it mean and how to use it to configure a FB type?

Depends on how you intend to use your FB Type.
If you intend to use it in CBM editor, you need not configure it. just leave it default.
If you intend to use it in Function Diagram Editor that comes with Engineering Studio, then you need to configure it.

This Column configures the Port Visibility for the Function Diagram (FD) Editor, and it is not used for any other Editor/Language.
to the visibility it can additionally specify the Port Placement for in_out Ports - e.g. "yes left" would have the Port looking like an Input Port.
