Operands N: Number of words
The number of words must be 0001 to FFFF (1 to 65,535 words).
S: First source word
S and S+(N–1) must be in the same data area.
Operand Specifications
Description BCNT(067) counts the total number of bits that are ON in all words between S
and S+(N–1) and places the result in R.
Flags
Precautions An error will occur if N=0000 or the result exceeds FFFF.
