KA681/KA691/KA692/KA694 Firmware Commands
A.2 Console Commands
A.2.16 START
The START command starts instruction execution at the address you specify.
If no address is given, the current PC is used. If memory mapping is enabled,
macro instructions are executed from virtual memory, and the address is
treated as a virtual address. The START command is equivalent to a DEPOSIT
to PC, followed by a CONTINUE. It does not perform a processor initialization.
Format:
START [{address}]
Arguments:
[address]
The address at which to begin execution. This address is loaded into
the user’s PC.
Example:
>>>START 1000
A.2.17 TEST
The TEST command invokes a diagnostic test program specified by the test
number. If you enter a test number of 0 (zero), all tests allowed to be executed
from the console terminal are executed. The console accepts an optional list of
up to five additional hexadecimal arguments.
Refer to Chapter 5 for a detailed explanation of the diagnostics.
Format:
TEST [{test_number} [{test_arguments}]]
Arguments:
{test_number}
A two-digit hex number specifying the test to be executed.
{test_arguments}
Up to five additional test arguments. These arguments are
accepted, but they have no meaning to the console.
Example:
>>>TEST 0
