2. Enter 01, the function number for AF1 addition.
This entry identifies that the function entered is to perform an AF1 addition and
that the processor use the data table format shown in Figure 3.2 when executed.
Operands 1 and 2 represent the two 6-digit numbers you wish to add. The six
digits of operand 1 are represented in BCD by the groups of bits labeled digit 1
through 6. Digit 1 and digit 6 are the most significant and the least significant
digits respectively. This digit labeling system also applies to operand 2 and the
result.

3. Enter a data address and a result address.
If we select a data address of 201 and a result address of 305, the AF1
establishes the data table format shown in Figure 3.3. Be careful not to select
data and result addresses so close together that the addresses of the operands
following the data address overlap your result address. The data address
eventually contains three digits of operand 1. The AF1 reserves the next three
higher addresses for digits 4 through 6 of operand 1 and digits 1 through 6 of
operand 2. The result address contains the most significant three digits of the
result and the next higher address contains the least significant three digits.
