View the Address, Data, and Status Labels
The labels, pods and bit assignments were configured when you loaded the sample listing. Often, you will load a configuration file you built or one supplied with the preprocessor.
There are three labels the inverse assembler needs to translate the binary data correctly: ADDR (address bus), DATA (data bus), and STAT (status). These labels must be capitalized to be recognized by the inverse assembler.
1Press the Format MENU key.
2Notice the required ADDR, DATA, and STAT labels.
The ADDR label collects the activity on the address bus. The DATA label collects the data and is what the inverse assembler translates into instructions. The STAT label records the type of instruction or bus transaction.
3Highlight the Pods field and turn the knob counter clockwise to scroll through the pods.
Notice that the bits are already assigned to the pods of each label. If you are using a 1670 series analyzer, your label and bit assignments will be different than those in the graphic below. This is because you are using a different sample listing and assembler.
The Pods field is used to scroll through the pods to see the bit assignments.
The Labels field is used to scroll through the labels.
ADDR, DATA, and STAT are used by the inverse assembler.
