I'd love to have LOGIC functions myself. :)

Mark;

Couple of questions:

Over the weekend, I wired the doors to the interface card that I have, and
using the port I/O calls, I was able to setup an event that shows me when
the doors are closed and locked.  

Under State-Holder, would it be too much to add Locked/Unlocked?  Or is this
something I can do with the custom definitions?

Also, is there a function that will allow you to do logical and/or functions
on a variable?  Something like:

Do          door_var          and        8

This would set a flag if the variable contained a 1 in the 8's place.

As it is now, I am using several lines like:

Do                 Door_var         Set              Interface_1_a

BEGINIF       door_var          Is GE          8
then               Front_Door     Set              Closed
Do                 door_var         subtract       8
ENDIF
Else               Front_Door     Set              Open

BEGINIF       door_var                 Is GE          4
then               Front_Deadbolt     Set              Closed
Do                 door_var                 Subtract     4
ENDIF
Else               Front_Deadbolt     Set              Open

Or if anyone else is doing the same type of thing,  Let me know....

Scott.
