Function Key Description
HEX Hexadecimal mode. All values are displayed as hexadecimal (base 16) numbers. The HEX mode does not support fractional values.
DEC Decimal mode. All values are displayed as decimal (base 10) numbers. The DEC mode does not support fractional values. The method of representing negative numbers is discussed below.
OCT Octal mode. All values are displayed as octal (base 8) numbers. The OCT mode does not support fractional values.
BIN Binary mode. All values are displayed as binary (base 2) numbers. The BIN mode does not support fractional values.
FLOAT Floating point mode. All values are displayed as floating point numbers at the requested number of decimal places. The is a "two part" function that requires a single digit [0-9] as an argument. The argument is the number of decimal places to be shown in the display. The display will automatically change to scientific notation if the requested decimal places would otherwise obscure the precision.
WSIZE Word size. Changes the internal word size (bits per word). WSIZE takes the value of the X register as the argument.
set 1's Set 1's complement. Change the representation of negative numbers to 1's complement (DEC mode only).
set 2's Set 2's complement. Change the representation of negative numbers to 2's complement (DEC mode only). This is the normal representation.
set UNSGN Set to unsigned complement. Change the representation of "negative" numbers to unsigned (DEC mode only).
show HEX Show the value in the X register as a hexadecimal number, but remain in the current mode.
show DEC Show the value in the X register as a decimal number, but remain in the current mode.
show OCT Show the value in the X register as a octal number, but remain in the current mode.
show BIN Show the value in the X register as a binary number, but remain in the current mode.
STATUS Display the current status of the word size, complement mode, and carry bit.
< Move the display “window” 32 bits to the left. In the binary mode, the presence of additional digits to the left is indicated by the “.b” mode indicator.
> Move the display “window” 32 bits to the right. . In the binary mode, the presence of additional digits to the right is indicated by the “b.” mode indicator.
SF Set Flag. Set the flag specified in the X register to 1.
CF Clear Flag. Set the flag specified in the X register to 0.
