SUMBITS - Sum Bits
The Sum Bits (SUMBITS) instruction is used to count the number of bits in the Input Value location that are set to 1.
Parameters:
Note: Use the F9 key to open the Default Element Selection Tool (the Element Picker or the Element Browser) or use the Down-Arrow key (Auto-Complete) on any parameter field to see a complete list of the memory locations that are valid for that parameter of the instruction.
Input Value is the numeric memory location (e.g. D0, WX7, etc.) or bit location with a numeric cast (e.g. C0:W, C8:B, X16:W, etc.), or constant value to scan. Bit locations with a cast operator must begin on the appropriate boundary, :B casts must begins on a Byte boundary, :W casts must begin on a Word boundary.
Output Value is a numeric memory location to store the number of 1's found in the Input Value. This can be any writable numeric memory location.
