I Know in access register mode B2 ALWAYS implies corresponding AR thanks

The other point that others are making is that when in access register mode, the instruction format is VERY important. LAE R3,(R4) - loads the value from the location pointed to by R4 in the home address space into R3 and sets the AR3 register with 0, regardless of the SAC values at the time. LAE R3,0(0,R4) - loads the value from the location pointed to by R4 in the address space indicated by access register AR4, if the SAC value is other than b'00', and loads AR3 with the SAC appropriate value. Even if you never write access register sensitive code, it is far better to use the correct instruction format. A) It gets you in the habit; and B) You never know when a piece of code may become access register sensitive.
