You can use this function block to show user-defined status texts and symbols in the User Interface
In addition, this can be used for decision logic.

Possible operating modes↑

== : selected input is the same as the value

> : selected input is greater than the value

>= : selected input is greater than or equal to the value

<: selected input is less than the value

<=: selected input is less than or equal to the value

!= : selected input is not the same as the value

*= : selected input contains the value

!* : selected input does not contain the value

: : selected input starts with the value

!: : selected input does not start with the value

Compare Inputs↑

Comparing inputs is possible by writing e.g. <v1>in the value field (similar to the Status-text field):

Only direct input references such as <v1> are supported. Formulas (e.g. <v1*3>) and precision formatting (e.g. <v1.2>) are not evaluated in conditions.

Comparing text inputs with numerical operators (<, <=, >, >=) is not supported.

Text fields↑

Direct input references: Condition value fields, Status-text and State value can use <v1> to <v8> to reference inputs I1 to I8.

Status-text and State value additionally support precision and formulas:
<v1> = value I1 without decimal places or text
<v1.2> = value I1 with 2 decimal places
<v2.2*100> = value I2 with 2 decimal places times 100
<v2.2/100> = value I2 with 2 decimal places divided by 100

Status-text additionally supports the block name and date/time values:
<vn> = Block name
<v1.t> = Time of value change on I1
<v1.d> = EIB date I1
<v1.m> = EIB time I1
