As loops can impair the system performance, depending on the configuration, they should be
used carefully and without time-intensive actions in the loops.
It is recommended that a register (REG[]) be used as run variable, because normal display
variables
(particularly those with system or user variables
connection) also impair the system
performance due to the frequent updates or write operations.
The runtime of "Run MyScreens" methods can be determined with the DEBUG function (see
Section DEBUG (Page 121)). Problems caused by loops (high CPU load, reduced response
capability) may be identified in this way.
Note
As each FOR loop can be replaced by a WHILE loop, the syntax to formulate a FOR loop is
not supported in EasyScreen.

Example
REG[0] = 5
DO
DEBUG("OUTER: " << REG[0])
REG[0] = REG[0] + 1
REG[1] = -5
DO
DEBUG("INNER: " << REG[1])
