* Read from device (load) <code>l r? d? logicType</code>: Reads logicType, like Pressure from a [[Sensors|gas sensor]], from device d? to register r?. Values can be read from connected devices and put into the register using the '''l''' (load) command. For example, if you want to load the state of a door. <br> Example: <code>l r0 Door Open</code> reads the 'Open' field of an object named 'Door', that would be connected to the IC housing of the chip. | * Read from device (load) <code>l r? d? logicType</code>: Reads logicType, like Pressure from a [[Sensors|gas sensor]], from device d? to register r?.

Adding an additional r infront of the register turns on this behaviour. The value stored in the register being used as the pointer must be between 0 to 15, this will then point to a register from r0 to r15, higher or lower values will cause an error. |
