Hi, I would like to ask if I want to do an IF/Else condition using the program so for example if My IO_5 is 1 I would like to run "Program A" and if IO_5 is 0, I want to run " program B". just wondering if it's possible. 
If I have to use python to run the If Else, how do I call the program Example " Drop slot 4" that I created in Python. 

I have attached my FILe inside too.

Hi Timothy,

I don't think that your attachment worked properly.

And to answer your question, yes you need to use Python to implement If/else statements.

--------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: The latest release of RoboDK lets you use IF and WHILE statements directly from the UI.

Hi Timothy, 

Did you take a look at the Python API documentation? Here it is: https://robodk.com/doc/en/PythonAPI/intro.html

The API is not my strong point but I'm pretty sure you can do something like:

Code:

If RDK.getDI("NameOfTheInput") = True:
  RDK.RunProgram("NameOfTheProgram1")
else:
  RDK.RunProgram("NameOfTheProgram2")
