Specifying Patterns
Certain assignment fields require bit patterns to be specified. Patterns can
be specified in any one of the available number bases, except ASCII. A
pattern can contain a value or a "Don't care."
The convention for "Don't cares" in these menus is an "X" except in the
decimal base. If the base is set to decimal after a "don't care" is specified, a $
character is displayed.
