est (LIM)
Use the LIM instruction to test for values within or outside a specified range,
depending on how you set the limits.
Entering Parameters
The Low Limit, T
est, and High Limit values can be word addresses or constants,
restricted to the following combinations:
• If the Test parameter is a constant, both the Low Limit and High Limit
parameters must be word addresses.
• If the Test parameter is a word address, the Low Limit and High Limit
parameters can be either a constant or a word address.
True/False Status of the Instruction
If the Low Limit has a value equal to or less than the High Limit, the instruction is
true when the Test value is between the limits or is equal to either limit. If the Test
value is outside the limits, the instruction is false, as shown below
.
Example, low limit less than high limit:
