Hi

Is there a good place to look at the basics of the available function options for NX/MCD? I am new to these.

For example I am trying to use a bool condition to set a value but I don't want to use the "else" part of the function to change it back once the condition goes false:

IF (GO_TO_POS_1=1)THEN(100) ELSE (0)

Removing the ELSE to give just (GO_TO_POS_1=1)THEN(100) isn,t accepted.

If someone could help with this particular problem would be great but somewhere to reference to for future questions would also help alot.

TIA

Justin

Hi

I did access the help file in the signal adapter/formulas area but it doesn't go into this. What docs are you referring to?

Thanks

 
While in the Expression Editor, hit the 'F1' button and see what comes up.

Hi, I tried that, it just brought up the same help page as pressing the "?" button. It doesn't go into formulas.
