5.4 List of block start data 
The illustrations below show the organization of the block start data stored in the buffer 
memory of Simple Motion module. The block start data setting items [Da.11]
 to [Da.14] 
are explained in the pages that follow.

Up to 50 block start data points can be set
(stored) for each axis in the buffer memory
addresses shown on the left.
Items in a single unit of block start data are
shown included in a bold frame.
Each axis has five start blocks (block Nos.
0 to 4).
Start block 2 to 4 are not allocated to buffe
memory.
Set with GX Works2.
(Note): For information on the organization
            of the buffer memory addresses
            assigned to the start block 1, refer
            to Appendix 1 "List of buffer memory
            addresses".
 
 
 
The following pages explain the block start data setting items [Da.11]
 to [Da.14]. 
(The buffer memory addresses shown are those of the "1st point block start data (block 
No. 7000)".) 
 
• Guide to buffer memory address 
In the buffer memory address, "n" in "22000+400n", etc. indicates a value 
corresponding to axis No. such as the following table. 
 
Axis No.  n  Axis No.  n  Axis No.  n  Axis No.  n 
1 0 5 4 9 8 13 12 
2 1 6 5 10 9 14 13 
3 2 7 6 11 10 15 14 
4 3 8 7 12 11 16 15 
 
(Note-1): Calculate as follows for the buffer memory address corresponding to each axis. 
(Example) For axis No. 16 
22000+400n ([Da.11] Shape) = 22000+400
15 = 28000
