List of Statements

The complete list of Control Basic statements and operators:


STATEMENT	TYPE	DESCRIPTONSUMMARY
NUMBERS	DATA	Real numbers are handled by the T3000 in full floating point format
DAYS	DATA	Days are evaluated as an integer from SUN=0, MON=1, TUE = 2, WED=3... to SAT = 6
DATES	DATA	Dates are handled internally by the T3000 as a number from JAN1=1 up to DEC31=365
TIMES	DATA	Times are handled internally as hours, but can be typed HH:MM:SS in a program
VARIABLES	DATA	Variables are handled internally as real numbers with full floating point notation
NOT	OPERATOR	Evaluates to TRUE if the opposite is true. IF NOT HOT evaluates to true when COLD
^	OPERATOR	Exponent, raises a number to a power as in 2^2 = 4
* / \ MOD	OPERATOR	Multiplication, division, integer portion of a division, remained of a division
+ -	OPERATOR	Addition and subtraction
< > ... etc	OPERATOR	Less than, greater than, and other combinations.

AND	LOGIC	Logical AND, both conditions must be TRUE for the expression to evaluate to TRUE
OR	LOGIC	Logical OR, if either expression is TRUE the result is TRUE
XOR	LOGIC	Logical Exclusive OR, evalutates to TRUE if the two expressions are different
ABS	FUNCTION	Absolute Value, returns the positive equivalent of a negative or positive number
ALARM	COMMAND	Causes an alarm, has built in hysterisis to avoid multiple alarms from the same event
ALARM-AT	COMMAND	Selects which panel will annunciate alarms, default is ALL panels
AVG	FUNCTION	Average of all numbers enclosed in the brackets following this command
CALL	COMMAND	Calls an other program which functions as a sub routine, takes arguments
CLEAR	COMMAND	Clears all the local variables in a given program
CLOSE	COMMAND	Sets a variable or out put to 0, same as STOP but is more intuitive in some cases
CONPROP	FUNCTION	Allows a Basic program to up date the proportional term in a particular PID controller
CONRATE	FUNCTION	Allows a Basic program to up date the derivative term in a particular PID controller
CONRESET	FUNCTION	Allows a Basic program to up date the integral term in a particular PID controller
DALARM	COMMAND	Delayed alarm, allows generation of alarms if a condition is true for a certain time
DECLARE	COMMAND	First line of a sub routine to accept the list of arguments from a CALL statement
DISABLE	COMMAND	Same as STOP or CLOSE, sets an item to 0
DOM	FUNCTION	Day of month, returns the day of the month, starting with 1 on the first of the month
DOW	FUNCTION	Day of week, returns a number from 0 to 6 starting with Sun day as zero
DOY	FUNCTION	Day of the year, starting with Jan1 as 1
ENABLE	COMMAND	Same as START or OPEN, sets the value of an item to 1.
END	COMMAND	Ends execution of a program, T3000 assumes and end at the end of each program
FOR	COMMAND	Loop control statement, FOR A =1 TO 10 ....PRO GRAM LINES.....NEXT A
GOSUB	COMMAND	Branches to sub routine, executes program till next RE TURN statement, and loops back
GOTO	COMMAND	Unconditionally branches program execution to an other line
HANGUP	COMMAND	Ends a phone call in progress
IF	COMMAND	Logical decision, IF HEAT MODE THEN START OUT1
IF+	COMMAND	Executes the program line only once when the condition goes from FALSE to TRUE
IF-	COMMAND	Opposite of IF+, executes the line only when a condition be comes FALSE
INT	FUNCTION	Returns the integer part of an expression
INTERVAL	FUNCTION	IF IN TER VAL(0:01:00) executes the following programming once every minute
LET	COMMAND	Assignment operator, LET B = 20, has the same effect as B = 20
LN	FUNCTION	Natural logarithm of the argument
LN-1	FUNCTION	In verse logarithm of the argument
MAX	FUNCTION	Maximum of a list of arguments enclosed in brackets following the statement
MIN	FUNCTION	Minimum of a list of arguments enclosed in brackets following the statement
NEXT	COMMAND	Used in conjunction with the FOR statement to increment the loop counter
ON	COMMAND	ON VAR1 GOTO 100 , 200 , 300 , controls program path depending on VAR1
ON-ALARM	COMMAND	Evaluates to TRUE when ever there is an alarm in the system.
ON-ERROR	COMMAND	Used with PHONE, REMOTE- GET, REMOTE- SET, and RUN- SYSTEM
OPEN	COMMAND	Sets an item to 1, OPEN OUT1 is the same as START OUT1
PHONE	COMMAND	Phones a number, allows T3000 to dial with a modem for numeric paging
POWER -LOSS	FUNCTION	Looks for loss of power, 1 the first time the function is evaluated, o afterwards
PRINT	COMMAND	Print strings at a printer connected to the panel
PRINT- AT	COMMAND	Print strings at a printer connected to an other panel on the net work
REM	COMMAND	Remark, used to add comments to a program
REMOTE- GET	COMMAND	10 REMOTE- GET VAR1 = 2IN1, gets a reading from an other site via modem
REMOTE-SET	COMMAND	Sets a variable at a remote site via modem.
RE TURN	COMMAND	Causes program execution to return from a sub routine
RUN-MACRO	COMMAND	Causes a macro command or series of key strokes to be run
SCANS	FUNCTION	The number of scans a panel is per forming in one second
SET-PRINTER	COMMAND	Tells a T3000 system there is a printer at a particular panel
SQR	FUNCTION	Returns the square root of the argument
START	COMMAND	Sets the value of an items to 1, same as OUT1 = 1 or OPEN OUT1
STATUS	FUNCTION	Status of a panel on the net work, 0 = No Comm, 1 =OK, 2 = no program
STOP	COMMAND	Sets the value of an items to 0, same as OUT1 = 0 or CLOSE OUT1
TBL	FUNCTION	Looks up a value in a table
TIME	FUNCTION	Finds the current time

TIME-OFF	FUNCTION	Finds the time variable has been false
