System Operation Reference Manual
111M 1401 Data Processing System
IBM 1460 Data Processing System
This reference publication contains the introduction and basic
instruction set for the IBM 1401 and IBM 1460. The operation code
for each instruction is given in actual and mnemonic form, with
examples of each. The formula for calculating the execution time
of each instruction is also included.
In addition, this manual presents the instructions and applicable
timings for the IBM 1402, 1403, 1406, and 1447. For general
information on the units attached to the 1401 and 1460 systems,
refer to the IBM 1401 and 1460 Bibliography, Form A24-1495.
This manual is the first of five reference manuals providing the
complete instruction set for the IBM 1401 and 1460. The other four
manuals are:
Miscellaneous Input/Ouput Instructions (A24-3068)
Tape Input/Output Instructions (A24-3069)
Disk Input/Output Instructions (A24-3070)
Special Feature Instructions (A24-3071)
To accommodate a particular system configuration, any
combination of these five manuals can be placed in a single
binder for the user's convenience.
Preface
This publication is the primary reference text for the Tape Input/Output Instructions (A24-3069)
IBM 1401 and 1460 Data Processing Systems. The full Section F Tape Input/Output Operations
set of manuals provides a detailed explanation of all
Disk Input/Output Instructions (A24-3070)
the instructions used by the system to manipulate data.
Section G Disk Input/Output Operations
Detailed explanations of the instructions used with
the required and available input/output units attached Miscellaneous Input/Output Instructions (A24-3068)
