Block storage
The programmer stores all programmed blocks in the program
memory in the order in which they are transferred (Fig. 2-2). With the
PG function "transfer data blocks A" the logic blocks are transferred
first followed by the data blocks.
The start addresses of all stored blocks are placed in an address list in
data block DB 0.
Correcting and
deleting blocks
When you correct blocks, the old block is declared invalid in the
memory and a new block is entered.
Similarly, when blocks are deleted, they are not really deleted, instead
they are declared invalid. The space they occupy is, however, not
released and is not available for blocks loaded later.
Note
You can use the COMPRESS MEMORY online function to make
space for new blocks. This function optimizes the utilization of
the memory by deleting blocks marked as invalid and shifting
valid blocks together.
