Description of elements in the BlockSearch_Common visualisation
Only one of the two keys can be active.
After the PLC application starts, the pre-assigned key "Block search by visu input" and the control unit are enabled on the HLI for the block search (enable_w of the control unit is TRUE). This is indicated by the green indicator "EnableW" in the "Block search handshake CH1" panel in the section below the two keys.
When "PLC code handles block search" is activated, all the handshakes required are processed by the state machine which is implemented at the end in the POU BlockSearch (program) after block search is parameterised and the NC program is started .
