Hi all. Say I'm using address W1 as my starting (and end) words in the SFT(010) instruction; does anyone know whether it's ok to "parallel load" W1 from other sources in the program (set a bit or bits, for example)? I need to look at various stages in a linear array of processes, any of which could generate an output bit, and then track all instances to the last bit in W1 for pass/reject action. Thanks, Steve.
Edit: Hmm, I can see this getting complicated, as I'd have to reset the "set" bits when the next shift occurs and that would interfere with the "next" bit in the register. So... how about a one-shot masked move with the mask arranged to match the station number so only the appropriate bit is loaded?
