Are these sentences both grammatically correct? If they are both grammatically correct, what's the difference in meanings?

Case A:
"1" will be outputed if "A" is inputted./"1" will not be outputted if "A" is not inputted.

Case B:
"1" is outputed if "A" is inputted./"1" is not outputted if "A" is not inputted.

They are grammatically correct if "output" is a verb.

Thank you for the reply and answer.
If both of these cases are correct, what's the difference in meaning between these two? No difference??

I said:
They are grammatically correct if "output" is a verb.
However, I do not agree that "output" is a verb. (If is is a verb it is new to me.) I recommend rewriting those sentences.
