Operand Input
There are four operand input methods: Input by register number, by symbol, by regis-
ter/symbol, and by parameter.
Terminology
An operand is data (symbols, register numbers, parameters) necessary to a command.
1. Input Mode Switching
This function switches the operand input from “Operand Input Mode,” “Symbol
Input Mode,” to “Operand+symbol Input Mode,” in that order. The current input
mode appears in the lower part of the window as shown in the figure below.
The register number input mode is active when the program window is first dis-
played. Switch the input mode by selecting any of Input Mode (M)
⇒ Operand
(O), Input Mode (M) ⇒ Symbol (S), or Input Mode (M) ⇒ Operand+Symbol
(D) from the View (V) menu.
2. Input by Register Number
When inputting the register number only, the cursor does not move to the symbol input
position.
a. Set operand input mode.
Current input mode
ADR : Register number input mode
SYM : Symbol input mode
S-A : Register/Symbol input mode
