The Four JUMPLOOP Types

The Series 920 gives you the capability to perform four basic jumploop types in
your programming. The backward jump, foward jump, nested loops, and

intertwining loops. These are only definitions of the four loops. The Series
920 has very few rules concerning loops in your program.

Backward Jump

The Backward jump is the most common jump. A backward jump will force
you to a step already performed. The Jump Step (JS) must be less than the
current step. You cannot JUMPLOOP to the step that you are on.

The steps in sequence will be: 2,3,4,5,2,3,4,5,6.

Your Jump Count (JC) can be anything from 0 - 100. If you enter 0, this will be

an infinite looping and will never progress to Step 6.

Forward Jump

The next loop type is a Forward jump. By definition you can jump forward.

The Jump Step must be greater than this step.
