Masking bits to 1

To turn certain bits on, the bitwise OR operation can be used, following the principle that Y OR 1 = 1 and Y OR 0 = Y. Therefore, to make sure a bit is on, OR can be used with a 1. To leave a bit unchanged, OR is used with a 0.

Example: Masking on the higher nibble (bits 4, 5, 6, 7) the lower nibble (bits 0, 1, 2, 3) unchanged.

     10010101 10100101
OR 11110000 11110000
     -----------------
   = 11110101   11110101

How did you make the colored squares which show that they are connected to an other node or something else?

It does it automatically when there is no route to connection, which is why I lined the switches across the board, trying to make it easier to see
