Thanks! This is very useful information. I basically have to find out how much 
I can do without code and whether or not I need to code something custom. It 
seems quite a lot can be done without code. Another consideration is 
maintainability of a state machine constructed with logic entities only. Since 
we might have to change to state machine quite often we might have to go a 
different route.

Regards,
Thomas

You can use the logic entities to set a global state sort of. Though I am
not very fluent in using them but I am almost positive its possible with
logic_compare and a math_counter. The math_counter would start at 0 and then
when you want to change state add 1 to it and have it fire a output
onvaluechanged and somehow use it in the logic_compare to see if the value
is 1 or 0. In the logic_compare you can have two different logic_relays fire
depending on the value. One for each state available. There is a way to do
all sorts of basic coding things using logic_ entities.
