Outline
This function compares data with regard to "< (smaller)".
1. Format
*1. Output variable
2. Set data
In explanation of functions, I/O variables inside ( ) are described.
Explanation of function and operation
1) This function compares the contents of devices specified in …, and outputs the operation result
expressed as the bit type data to a device specified in .
This function executes comparison [ < ] & [ < ] & … & [ -1 < ].
a) This function outputs "TRUE" when all comparison results are " (n-1) < (n)".
b) This function outputs "FALSE" when any comparison result is " (n-1) ≥ (n)".
2) The number of pins in can be changed.
Cautions
When handling 32-bit data in structured programs, you cannot specify 16-bit devices directly, different from
simple projects. Use labels when handling 32-bit data.
You can specify 32-bit counters directly, however, because they are 32-bit devices.
Use global labels when specifying labels.
Program example
In this program, the contents of devices specified in and are compared, and the operation result is
output to a device specified in .
