2. Enter 13, the function number for AF4 BCD to binary conversion.
This entry identifies that the function entered is to perform an AF4 BCD to
binary conversion and that the processor use the data table format shown in
Figure 3.18 when executed.

3. Enter a data address and a result address.
If we choose a data address of 200 and a result address of 300, the data table
format is as shown in Figure 3.19. The most significant three digits of the
operand (the BCD number we want to convert to binary) reside in the data
address word 200 and the least significant three digits reside in the next higher
address, 201. The first two digits are always zero and the third digit must not
exceed four. The number, converted to binary format, is stored in bits 0 through
13 in the result address, word 300.
