Comparison Instructions Section 5-19
5-19-8 AREA RANGE COMPARE – ZCP(– –)
Limitations LL must be less than or equal to UL.
Description When the execution condition is OFF, ZCP(––) is not executed. When the exe-
cution condition is ON, ZCP(––) compares CD to the range defined by lower
limit LL and upper limit UL and outputs the result to the GR, EQ, and LE flags
in the SR area. The resulting flag status is shown in the following table.
Precautions Placing other instructions between ZCP(––) and the operation which
accesses the EQ, LE, and GR flags may change the status of these flags. Be
sure to access them before the desired status is changed.
Flags ER: Indirectly addressed EM/DM word is non-existent.
(Content of *EM/*DM word is not BCD, or the EM/DM area boundary
has been exceeded.)
LL is greater than UL.
EQ: ON if LL
≤ CD ≤ UL
LE: ON if CD < LL.
GR: ON if CD > UL.
