A breakpoint system allows programs to pause (enter a paused state) where necessary, facilitating analysis and debugging.

1.1. 1. Add a breakpoint

Users can manually add breakpoints in the breakpoint menu bar or ladder diagram. Taking ladder diagram breakpoints as an example, they can right-click on the location where they want to add breakpoints to pop up a right-click menu, and click the "Add breakpoint" button to complete the operation.
