BS1 Program Help

I think I am being confused about the use of IF <condition> THEN on a BS1.

I had used:
IF p5 = 1 THEN

t2 = 120

t1 = 240

ELSE

t1 = 120

t2 = 240

END IF

and the IF p5 THEN is asking for a label to go to. I had understood that I could use the IF <condition> THEN the way I had entered it.

When compiling code for a BS1, the Stamp Editor uses an older syntax where there is no ELSE or ENDIF. You would need to write:

IF p5 = 1 THEN label1
t1 = 120
t2 = 240
GOTO label2
label1:
t2 = 120
t1 = 240
label2:

Notice that the two blocks of code were switched. You need to do that or change the = to <>

Thank you. I guess I have been using high level languages too long.
