9.9.1 Local pointer Note12
(1) Definition
The local pointer is a pointer that can be used independently in jump instructions and subroutine call instructions
in each program.
The same pointer number can be used in respective programs.
(2) Number of local pointer points
The local pointer can be divided for use of all the programs stored in the program memory.
The local pointer number ranges from P0 to the highest number of the local pointer in use. (The CPU module's
system computes the number of points used.)
Even if only P99 is used in a program, for example, the number of points used will be 100, which is from P0 to
P99.
For using the local pointer for several programs, use the pointers in ascending order starting from P0 in each
program.
The total is 600 points when the pointer is used as shown below.
