| 1. A computer-implemented system that automatically selects an add-on instruction for execution by an industrial device, comprising
following components stored in a computer memory:
a first component that detects an add-on instruction call from a user program executing within the industrial device;
a second component that determines a state of the add-on instruction; and
a third component that provides a routine within the add-on instruction for execution, based at least in part on the state
of the add-on instruction.
