After locating the file address in the timer/counter area of the data table,
the processor then duplicates and transfers the file data consecutively one
word at a time until complete, starting at the selected file address.
At the completion of the transfer, a done bit for the read or write operation
is set in the input image table byte as a signal that a valid transfer
has completed.
The format of a block transfer read and a block transfer write instruction
with default values is shown in Figure 14.3.
