LINE
Process Function
SYNTAX: a = LINE(terminal #)
PURPOSE: To return the status of an input on a STB-26 terminal board.
REMARK S: The terminal # has a one-to-one correspondence with the terminals on the STB-26 terminal board.
This feature eases documentation and troubleshooting. Refer to Card M anual for terminal number
range.
A 1 is returned when a line is logic high, 0 when logic low.
The LINE function is similar to the BIT function in that individual I/O bits or channels can be read.
It differs in that it is used specifically with the STB-26 terminal boards and it executes much faster.
