BANK READ

This instruction can be used to read a number of bytes from an out-of-memory bank in main memory. You must therefore indicate one of the available banks, the memory address from which you want to copy (the $0000 implies the beginning of the bank), the size in bytes and finally the destination address, which will be the RAM memory.

Note that, if the destination of read is an array, the array must be declared with the flag FOR BANK READ.
