The following machine data can be used to set the possible variants for the block search in a
JobShop program (ShopMill, ShopTurn):
MD51024 $MNS_BLOCK_SEARCH_MODE_MASK_JS Bit mask for the available search modes
(ShopMill, ShopTurn, single-channel)
Bit 0 = 1 Block search with calculation, without approach (default setting)
Bit 1 = 1 Block search with calculation, with approach
Notice:
In a ShopMill/ShopTurn program, the search is performed only on G code-blocks.
Bit 3 = 1 Skip EXTCALL programs
Bit 5 = 1 Block search with test run
Note
The "Block search mode" softkey is only displayed, if, in the machine data MD51024 or
MD51028, more than one version for the block search has been defined; for example "Block
search with calculation without approach" and "Block search with calculation with approach".
When so doing, take into account that the search versions set active in the "Block search
mode" window are also referred to the program.
5.7.2 Accelerated block search for execution from external
The accelerated block search function allows you to run the part program forward until you
reach the block you require.
Settings
If you activate the "Skip EXCALL" function, then you must set the following general
configuration machine data:
MD51028 $MNS_BLOCK_SEARCH_MODE_MASK Bit mask for the available search modes
Bit 3 = 1 (33H to 3BH)
For an external main program, a block search without calculation is always a fast block search.
Only the blocks from the search position are loaded.
