Use [switch](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/switch) or [case](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/case) to get different results for different values of a single tag/property. Use [binEnum](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/binEnum) (to get index of first true condition) or [binEnc](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/binEnc) (to get a single value representing state of all conditions) for multiple true/false conditions.
