Notes:\\
Zero (0) is represented internally as C82 but punched as 0.\\
Record mark (\rlap{$\;|$}$=$ on 1403, $|$ in Pierce encodings, ' in
SimH encoding) is represented internally as A82 but is punched as 0-2-8
--- because 0 can't simultaneously be used for A and 82.\\
The A bit alone (\^{\ }) has no input punch on 1401 without a free RPQ
(which number I've forgotten).  With the RPQ or on 1410 it's 2-8.  It
might punch as 0.

\LARGE 1401 BCD Encodings in ASCII\\
and Tables for Addressing above 1K

\end{centering}
\vskip 0.25in

The following pages have tables of:
\begin{itemize}
\item Pierce Primary (A chain) BCD encoding,
\item Pierce Alternative (H chain) BCD encoding, and
\item Traditional SimH BCD encoding.
\end{itemize}

Each table includes a Secret Decoder Ring for addressing above 1k.

Page 2 has six copies of Pierce Primary encoding; page 3 has six copies
of Pierce Alternative encoding; page 4 has six copies of SimH encoding.

If you print pages 2 and 3 duplex and page 4 simplex, you can laminate
the sheets and cut each one into six pieces, giving shirt-pocket size
reference cards for the three encodings.

Page 5 has two copies of all three encodings, but even if cut in half
each set of tables is a bit too large for a shirt-pocket reference.

Page 6 has three copies of the Pierce encodings, while page 7 has three
copies of the SimH encoding, with space for one table below each.  If you
print pages 6 and 7 duplex and laminate the sheet, you can cut it into
three shirt-pocket size reference cards with Pierce encodings one one
side and SimH encodings on the other.
