Conditional Expression The conditional expression always returns only a logical value A logical value can be one of two values TRUE or FALSE XPanel uses the number 0 as the value of logical FALSE and 1 as the value of logical TRUE A logical expression needs some special operators The logical operators in XPanel are shown in as following table For more precise information refer to the section 3 2 Logical Operator Description Example wo lt m All logical operators get one or two values for input operands and return a logical output SCRIPT 27 tea Be ie De m value According to the above examples A and B are those inputs The value for logical arithmetic operand is not restricted to only two logical values TRUE or FALSE The input value can be any number But only zero is treated as logical FALSE All the other values are treated as TRUE Comparative operators get two real values for operands and return a logical output value Those logical output values can be used in other logical expression Here is some examples of conditional expression that can be used in object configuration dialog box Conditional Expression Example Remark If the value of Tag a is not equal to 1 and the Tag a 1 amp amp Tag b 10 value of Tag b is equal to 10 then the expression returns TRUE Otherwise FALSE If the sine of Tag a is 1 then the expression oin
