General parameters

Block search type
Description	Specifies the type of block search mode.
Type	UNS16
Value range	0 - none (default), 1 - file offset, 3 - block count, 4 - block number
HMI elements	mc_cmd_bs_type_r, mc_cmd_bs_type_w
Zugriff	Read, write
IndexOffset_ADS	0x61, 0x49 (IndexGroup_ADS = 0x000201<ii> with <ii> = channel)

Covered distance
Description	Specifies the moved distance in the NC block in per mille, where the real execution shall continue. The start of a block could be moved in block search (without execution) and remaining part could be moved real.
Type	REAL64
Value range	[ 0.0; 1000.0 ], default 0.0
HMI elements	mc_cmd_bs_covered_distance_r, mc_cmd_bs_covered_distance_w
Zugriff	Read, write
IndexOffset_ADS	0x62, 0x4A (IndexGroup_ADS = 0x000201<ii> with <ii> = channel)

Automatic return
Description	Specifies if return to contour shall be generated automatically.
Type	BOOLEAN
Value range	TRUE, FALSE (default)
HMI elements	mc_cmd_bs_auto_return_r, mc_cmd_bs_auto_return_w
Zugriff	Read, write
IndexOffset_ADS	0x63, 0x4b (IndexGroup_ADS = 0x000201<ii> with <ii> = channel)

Maximum path deviation
Description	Specifies the maximum deviation between actual axis position and restart position when execution is resumed after block search. In case of automatic return to contour the maximum deviation is not considered, because the exact position must be reached anyway.
Type	UNS32
Value range	[ 0; MAX_UNS32 ] in 0.1 mikrom, default 0
HMI elements	mc_cmd_bs_deviation_max_r, mc_cmd_bs_deviation_max_w
Zugriff	Read, write
IndexOffset_ADS	0x64, 0x4c (IndexGroup_ADS = 0x000201<ii> with <ii> = channel)

Actual covered distance (PCS)
Description	Is used in the PLC for reading the real covered distance of actual movement block (e.g. after feedhold, emergency stop, program abort ...).
Information flow	NCK → PLC
Unit	Per mille
ST path	pMC[channel_idx]^.addr^.StateBahn_Data.D_CoveredDistance
Data type	DINT
Access	PLC reads
Characteristics	During block search instruction the read value can be used for the definition of the covered distance in NC block, where the real execution shall continue.
