Entering and running a Program

Short programs such as bootstraps and test programs can be entered directly into memory (in binary) using the Console. The procedure is as following.

Press the M button in the Display Source panel.

Tap the initial program's address in the Entry Switches and press the SET button near the ADDR display.

Tab the first program's word in the Entry Switches and press the STO button near the DATA display. This will store that word into the initial memory location.

Press the ">" button near the STO button to increment the address by one. The DATA display will now show the content of that memory location, which you will overwrite in the next step.

Enter the next program's word as you did with the first and continue doing the same until the entire program is in memory.

To run the program, proceed as following:

Press the PC button in the Display Source panel.

Tab the program's initial address in the Entry Switches, then press the STO button near the DATA display. This will load that address in the Program Counter.

Press the RUN button.
