CO n

Configures the 64 bits of extended I/O in 8 banks of 8 bits each.

 

n = n2 + 2*n3 + 4*n4 + 8*n5 + 16*n6 + 32*n7 + 64*n8 + 128*n9

 

where nx is a 1 or 0, 1 for outputs and 0 for inputs. The x is the bank number

OP m,n,o,p,q

m = 8 standard digital outputs

n = extended I/O banks 0 & 1, outputs 17-32 o = extended I/O banks 2 & 3, outputs 33-48 p = extended I/O banks 4 & 5, outputs 49-64 q = extended I/O banks 6 & 7, outputs 65-80

SB n

Sets the output bit to a logic 1, n is the number of the output from 1 to 80.

CB n

Clears the output bit to a logic 0, n is the number of the output from 1 to 80.

OB n,m

Sets the state of an output as 0 or 1, also able to use logical conditions.

TI n

Returns the state of 8 digital inputs as binary converted to decimal, n is the bank number +2.

_TI n

Operand (internal variable) that holds the same value as that returned by TI n.

@IN[n]

Function that returns state of individual input bit, n is number of the input from 1 to 80.
