Use the Program Search feature to begin program execution from some
block other than the beginning of the program. This feature requires the

operator to establish the necessary G-, M-, S-, F-, and T-words, work

coordinate offsets, etc. that should be active for that block’s execution.

The control can start a program at a chosen block and establishing any

previous G-, M-, S-, F-, and T-words, work coordinate offsets, etc. that

were established in previous blocks using the search with memory feature.

For details, see page 7-12.

The program search feature is not effective for subprograms and

paramacros; only blocks that are in the main program can be searched.
