Introduction to S4 11

The START and END addresses normally
define the whole PROM. They can be edited to
limit the effect of functions to less than a whole
PROM.
When editing the START address, if the or

keys are pressed, then the START and END

addresses will change automatically to new
boundaries.
If the START address is changed to fall outside
the current boundary then the END address
changes automatically to the end of the new
boundary.
If either the START or the END address is
moved away from the boundary, the = (equal)
sign will change to a # (not equal).
S4 refuses to accept a value for the END
address outside the current PROM size.
If the configured PROM is bigger than the
available memory, then the sign before the
DEST address will always be #. In this case it
is not possible to handle the whole PROM in
one pass. The DEST address, may be edited
with the and keys to divide the PROM into
blocks which can be handled separately.


Only one set of START, END, DEST
addresses are stored and shared between
those functions which use these parameters.
Pressing the ESCape key when editing the
parameter line aborts the command, but leaves
