Hello
I write this line in the F(x)= (column calculation row):
P<=10?:B-D/E
the result of the condition is exactly the opposite: only the P>10 execute B-D/E.
?

That is the correct behavior for the ternary operator.

For the logical statement:
if A==<value> then X else Y

The ternary operator would be:
A==<value> ? X : Y

So, in
P<=10?:B-D/E

You have an else but not a then.

Maybe you mean this:
P<=10?B-D/E:

More properly, you'd provide an else in the form of something that equates to a "missing value": E.g.:
P<=10?B-D/E:0/0

where 0/0 equates to a missing value.

Thanks,
