Structured Text (ST Language)
Specifications
Structured Text
Structured text (also referred to as ST language) is a high-level programming language similar to PASCAL that
uses language structures such as selection and iteration statements. Programs written using structured text
are configured using statements. Statements are configured from variables and equations.
uses language structures such as selection and iteration statements. Programs written using structured text
are configured using statements. Statements are configured from variables and equations.
• Equations are sequences containing operators and operands (variables or constants). Operators include
arithmetic operators, comparison operators, and logical operators.
• Statements are either assignment or control statements. Assignment statements store calculation results
from the equation in the variable. Control statements include selection statements and iteration state-
ments.

Restrictions
Statement Delimiters
• Statements (assignment and control statements) must always end in a semicolon (;). The statement can-
not be completed by simply using a carriage return.
• Do not use a semicolon (;) as a delimiter within a statement such as following reserved words, values, or
equations. Inserting a semicolon within a statement, except at the end of a statement, will result in a syntax
error.
error.
Comments
• Comments are enclosed in parentheses and asterisks, i.e., (*comment*). Any characters except parenthe-
ses and asterisks can be used within a comment. Nesting within comments is not supported.
