.WSCAN LDA #0 \ Set DL to 0 STA DL .WSCAN1 LDA DL \ Loop round these two instructions until DL is no BEQ WSCAN1 \ longer 0 (DL gets set to 30 in the LINSCN routine, \ which is run when vertical sync has occurred on the \ video system, so DL will change to a non-zero value \ at the start of each screen refresh) RTS \ Return from the subroutineName: WSCAN [Show more] Type: Subroutine Category: Drawing the screen Summary: Implement the #wscn command (wait for the vertical sync)Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code Variations: See code variations for this subroutine in the different versions References: This subroutine is called as follows: * OSWVECS calls WSCAN
Wait for vertical sync to occur on the video system - in other words, wait for the screen to start its refresh cycle, which it does 50 times a second (50Hz).
