We develop the entropy formula by analyzing the corresponding systems of nonlinear recursive equations (SNREs). Four types of SNREs of $S_{2}$-SFTs, namely the types $\\mathbf{E},\\mathbf{D},\\mathbf{C}$ and $\\mathbf{O}$, are introduced and we could compute their entropies explicitly. This enables us to give the complete characterization of $S_{2}$-SFTs on two symbols.
