Flags ER: Mi and/or Su is not BCD.
Indirectly addressed DM word is non-existent. (Content of DM word is
not BCD, or the DM area boundary has been exceeded.)
CY: ON when the result is negative, i.e., when Mi is less than Su plus CY.
EQ: ON when the result is 0.
Caution Be sure to clear the carry flag with CLC(41) before executing SUB(31) if its pre-
vious status is not required, and check the status of CY after doing a subtraction
with SUB(31). If CY is ON as a result of executing SUB(31) (i.e., if the result is
negative), the result is output as the 10’s complement of the true answer. To con-
vert the output result to the true value, subtract the value in R from 0.
Example When 00002 is ON, the following ladder program clears CY, subtracts the con-
tents of DM 0100 and CY from the content of 010 and places the result in HR 20.
If CY is set by executing SUB(31), the result in HR 20 is subtracted from zero
(note that CLC(41) is again required to obtain an accurate result), the result is
placed back in HR 20, and HR 2100 is turned ON to indicate a negative result.
If CY is not set by executing SUB(31), the result is positive, the second subtrac-
tion is not performed, and HR 2100 is not turned ON. HR 2100 is programmed as
a self-maintaining bit so that a change in the status of CY will not turn it OFF
when the program is recycled.
In this example, differentiated forms of SUB(31) are used so that the subtraction
operation is performed only once each time 00002 is turned ON. When another
subtraction operation is to be performed, 00002 will need to be turned OFF for at
least one cycle (resetting HR 2100) and then turned back ON.
