Syntax

DigState(s1 [, x])

Arguments

s1

A character string representing a digital state.

x

(Optional) A digital point in which the character string represents a digital state. If omitted, all digital state sets, starting with the system digital set, are searched for the given string.

Returns

An enumeration value. (For PI PE calculations, a digital state is returned.)

Exceptions

If the character string does not represent a digital state in the digital state set of the specified digital point, the function returns Calc Failed. If digital point is omitted and character string does not represent a digital state in any of the digital sets, Calc Failed is returned.
