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.
Example When CIO 000000 is ON in the following example, BCNT(067) counts the
total number of ON bits in the 10 words from CIO 0100 through CIO 0109 and
writes the result to D00100.
