Just to expand that, the D registers are 16 bit registers only availlable as words, the M are bit level m0, m1,m2 etc.
Note in mitsubishi you can alter the settings to give the range of retentitive i.e. D200 to D512 or D0 to D512, you can do this for most addressable internals.
You can copy D words to M bits by mov instruction & vice versa i.e. D200 k4m0
the K4M0 means 4 nibbles (16bits) starting at M0.
