CHAPTER 5 |
Nodes & Program Configurations
TABLE node
The TABLE node is used to allow the
SBX
2
to perform different actions at different periods or intervals (time, date, month, day,
weekly, hourly, monthly & calendar). It contains a Mode of operation, an
‘invalid’ and a ‘continue’ instruction, followed by a list
of Action Table entries. Each Action Table entry contains a starting and ending value, followed by an instruction.
When the Table node is encountered in the call flow, the contents of the Table are checked and if any of the entries
match, the Action is executed. If none of the entries match, the
SBX
2
executes the
‘Invalid’ instruction.
Field Tag
