programs".
2.14.2 Copying data
High-speed copying
The following is an example of how to copy data at high speed from one DB into another.
Code Comment
// DB xx.[AR1] is the source
// DI yy.[AR2] is the destination
OPEN DB 100; //Source DB
LAR1 P#20.0; //Source start address on data byte 20
OPEN DI 101; //Destination DB
LAR2 P#50.0; //Destination start address on data byte 50
//AR1, AR2, DB, DI loaded beforehand
L 42; //Transfer 84 bytes
M001:
L DBW [AR1,P#0.0]; //Copy word-oriented
L DBW [AR1,P#0.0];
T DIW [AR2,P#0.0];
+AR1 P#2.0;
+AR2 P#2.0;
TAK;
LOOP M001;
