on the line only if the specified I/O input bit has the requested state. If the
condition is not met at the time of evaluation, the rest of the command line
is ignored and the program execution continues with the next line.
After pressing the , IFINP. k e y, the display asks you to select an input bit
to be tested. Enter a number between 1 and 8 on the numeric keypad and

When done, press the O N k e y to accept the entry.
