There are some operators that have more than one output. Each output is provided via a port. The default port is 0, the second one is 1 etc. The selection for example, pushes all elements that fulfill the predicate to output port 0 and all other to output port 1. So, if you want to use another port, you can prepend the port number with a colon in front of the operator. For example, if you want the second output (port 1) of the select:

PROJECT({…}, 1:SELECT({predicate=RelationalPredicate('1<x')}, …))
