IF I1 > 0 THEN

IF I2 > I3 THEN

In the example below, an IF-THEN-ELSE statement is combined with an assignment
statement to toggle the value of a local display input, named SCRLCNT, between 1 and 0
each time the Scroll key is pressed:

SCROLL_PRESSED:

{

IF SCRLCNT >= 1 THEN

SCRLCNT = 0;

ELSE

SCRLCNT = SCRLCNT + 1;

3.2.5 CASE

Statements

The CASE statement presents a list of labels and associated statements. The value of the
expression is compared with these labels. If a match is found, the associated statements
are executed. If no match is found, the default statements are executed. The default case
is optional – if it is not present and no other match is found, no statements are executed.

The general format of the CASE statement is:

CASE expression OF

{

Label1:

Statement1;

Label2:

Statement2;

.

.

.

LabelN:

StatemetnN;

DEFAULT:

StatementM;

}

The cases can be listed in any order. The integer labels must be unique and must be in the
range of 0 to 65535. Up to 255 cases may be present, not including the default case. If
the expression evaluates to a value outside the range 0 to 65535, the default case is
executed, if present.

The BREAK statement causes immediate exit from a CASE statement. As a general rule,
the last statement for each case should be a BREAK statement, although it is not required.
After the statements associated with the case are done, execution continues with the
statements for the next case unless a BREAK statement is present to prevent this.
