10 h interrupt
- 2. • Option 0H – Sets video mode. • Registers used: – AH = 0H – AL = Video Mode. • 3H - CGA Color text of 80X25 • 7H - Monochrome text of 80X25 • Ex: – MOV AH,0 – MOV AL,7 – INT 10H
- 3. BIOS Interrupt 10H • Option 2H – Sets the cursor to a specific location. • Registers used: – AH = 2H – BH = 0H selects Page 0. – DH = Row position. – DL = Column position.
- 4. Example – MOV AH,2 – MOV BH,0 – MOV DH,12 – MOV DL,39 – INT 10H
- 5. Interrupt 10H – 6H • Option 6H – Scroll window up. This interrupt is also used to clear the screen when you set AL = 0. • Registers used: – AH = 6H – AL = number of lines to scroll. – BH = display attribute. – CH = y coordinate of top left. – CL = x coordinate of top left. – DH = y coordinate of lower right. – DL = x coordinate of lower right.
- 6. Cont.., • Clear Screen Example: – MOV AH,6 – MOV AL,0 – MOV BH,7 – MOV CH,0 – MOV CL,0 – MOV DH,24 – MOV DL,79 – INT 10H • The code above may be shortened by using AX, BX and DX registers to move word size data instead of byte size data.
- 7. • Option 7H – Scroll window down. This interrupt is also used to clear the screen when you set AL = 0. • Registers used: – AH = 7H – AL = number of lines to scroll. – BH = display attribute. – CH = y coordinate of top left. – CL = x coordinate of top left. – DH = y coordinate of lower right. – DL = x coordinate of lower right.
- 8. • Option 8H – Read a character and its attribute at the cursor position. • Registers used: – AH = 8H and returned attribute value. – AL = Returned ASCII value. – BH = display page.
- 9. • Option 9H – Write a character and its attribute at the cursor position. • Registers used: – AH = 9H. – AL = ASCII value. – BH = display page. – BL = attribute. – CX = number of characters to write.
- 10. The End
