3.2.3.3 ºBLOCK SEARCHº

The ºBLOCK SEARCHº function allows entry into a program at any desired point. In the ºBlock searchº display, you enter the program and the block number.

A block search is also possible in nested subroutines. Enter in the main program the number of the block in which the subroutine call is programmed. After this, enter the subroutine number, the pass count, and the block number of the subroutine.

During the block search operation, the same calculations are carried out as in normal program operation although the axes are not traversed

Output of the auxiliary functions during ªblock searchº

can be defined in machine data.

Depending on the setting at the time of installation, the H, M, S and T functions are output completely, partially or they are suppressed entirely.
