If source data is not BCD code, SM409 will be ON (Operation error), SD409=4 (error

As constant K automatically converts to binary, so it’s not suitable for this instruction.
For example: all the information stored in the clock information register SD13~SD19 of PLC
is BCD code, but we are used to using decimal value. The time information can be converted
from BCD code information to binary:
