The @ step parameter

Last Updated : Jun 01, 2018 |

Use the @ step parameter with the goto vector command conditionals to branch to a specific step in a vector. For example:

  • goto vector xxx @ step yy if <conditional> [comparator] <threshold>

  • goto vector xxx @ step yy if unconditional

The requirements for the @ step parameter are as follows:

  • The default step number is 1. The step number remains at 1 until you change it to a step number between 2 and 99.

  • When the step number is set between 1 and 99, the goto vector command saves the returned data when subroutines are active. Vector processing starts again at the branched-to vector at the specified step.

  • If the specified step in the branched-to vector is blank, vector processing skips to the next step in the vector. If it is the last step, it is treated as a stop step.
