Outputs
Purpose Set a group of outputs, in either binary (BIN) or binary coded decimal (BCD) format,
to the value of a variable.
Syntax BCD Om, n = value
BIN Om, n = value
m The output specified by m is set to the least significant bit of
variable.
nn is the number of outputs included in the group.
value The value can be a constant, a nonvolatile variable Gn, a vola-
tile variable Vn or a system variable.
Remarks If the value is greater than n bits, the least significant n bits are output.

Example
BCD 03, 4 = V1 ;Set outputs 3, 4, 5, and 6
BCD 03, 2 = 2 ;Set output 3 OFF and output 4 ON
BIN 04, 3 = G7 ;Set outputs 4, 5, and 6
BCD variable = Im, n

Inputs
Purpose Read a group of inputs in either binary (BIN) or binary coded decimal (BCD) for-
mat into a variable.
Syntax BCD variable = Im, n
BIN variable = Im, n
m The input specified by m is the least significant bit of
the group.
nn is the number of inputs included in the group.
variable The variable may be a nonvolatile variable Gn, a vol-
atile variable Vn or a system variable.
Remarks If the BCD instruction is used and the value is out of range, a BCD input out of
range error will be generated.
