Data byte B9H is placed in the accumulator that turns on

the air conditioner, radio, cof-
feepot, and bedroom and kitchen lights.

6.3.6 Review of Important Concepts

1. Logic operations are performed in relation to the
contents of the accumulator.
2. Logic operations simulate eight 2-input gates (or
inverters).
3. The Sign, Zero (and Parity) flags are modified to
reflect the status of the operation.
The Carry flag is reset. However, the NOT operation
does not affect any flags.
4. After a logic operation has been performed, the
answer is placed in the accumulator
replacing the original contents of the accumulator.
