Branch Statement
IF Statement
IF Statement performs the operations in the statement if the conditional expression’s result is "1"
If IF Statement’s condition is false and there’s ELSIF, the condition of ELSIF is examined.
If all the conditions are false, none of the command statements are performed unless there is an ELSE.
Format
IF Conditional_Expression THEN Syntaxes ELSIF Conditional_Expression THEN Syntaxes (Omit) ELSE Syntaxes END_IF; |
Conditional Expressions can be composed of Comparison Operation or Logical Operation
There can be multiple Syntaxes.
Multiple number of ELSIF can be used. ELSE can only be used once or not used at all.
Example
Description |
// IF D1’s value is 0, assign 1 to D100 IF DW01 = 0 THEN DW100 := 1; // If D1’s value is 1, assign 2 to D100 ELSIF DW01 = 1 THEN DW100 := 2; // If D1’s value is less than 5, assign 3 to D100 ELSIF DW01 < 5 THEN DW100 := 3; // If D1’s value is not 0 or 1 and equal to or greater than 5, assign 0 to D100 ELSE DW100 := 0; END_IF; |
CASE Statement
CASE Statement branches the following operations according to the expression’s value.
Format
CASE Expression OF Integer_Option : Syntaxes Integer_Option : Syntaxes (Omit) ELSE Syntaxes END_CASE; |
The Expression must be integer.
Integer_Option can be either singular integer, multiple integers or the range of integers.
Integer_Option types | Description |
1 | When the Expression’s value is 1 |
2, 3, 4 | When the Expression’s value is 2, 3, 4 |
5..10 | When the Expression’s value is from 5 to 10 (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) |
1, 2..5, 10 | When the Expression’s value is 1, 2 to 5, and 10 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10) |
There can be multiple Syntaxes.
ELSE can only be used once or not used at all.
Example
Description |
CASE DW10 OF // If D10’s value is 4, assign 4 to D0 4: DW00 := 4; // If D10’s value is between 5 to 6 or 7, assign 5 to D0 5..6, 7: DW00 := 5; // If D10’s value is 4 or between 5 to 6 or not 7, assign 0 to D0 ELSE DW00 := 0; END_CASE; |
