Hardware Load Format
The hardware load format output of the General Assembly Program may be loaded into the
DATANET-30 by either hardware load or a loader program. When !Jle paper tape is loaded via
a loader program, checking is accomplished by the block hash total and program hash total.
When the paper tape is loaded via hardware load, no checking by hash total is accomplished.
The block hash total is located at position N
+
1 of a block of N words. Program hash total is
located after the address of a transfer word, and before the end hardware load character. Block
is the equivalent of a binary card or binary tape record. Octal cards will be converted to a
block length of one. An example of hardware load paper tape format is shown below:
