Compare two readings and highlight when is a difference

Hello community,

I would like to ask for some help with a problem I have. There are readings that I have to compare: Static Input 1 A/F with Static Input 1 A/L, and same for each 2,3,4,.... In case there is a difference get "Changed", or highlight in red. This visual is a matrix and not sure ih a measure is applicable in this case. Do you have to create a condition for each case? Input 1, Input 2, ... .Any sugestions is welcomed!

Maybe this situation is a bit better to solve. Create a calc column or a measure that will compare the two values from the two selected columns (in this case Static Input 1 A/F and Static Input 1 A/L) and give 1 when equal and zero when different. Those values should be based on the slicer selection (Reading DEscription). So the user have to select the two columns that need comparison.
