Entering the search target via search pointer

Enter the program point which you would like to proceed to in the "Search Pointer" window.
Requirement
The program is selected and the controller is in the reset state.
Screen form
Each line represents one program level. The actual number of levels in the program depends
on the nesting depth of the program.
Level 1 always corresponds to the main program and all other levels correspond to
subprograms.
You must enter the target in the line of the window corresponding to the program level in which
the target is located.
For example, if the target is located in the subprogram called directly from the main program,
you must enter the target in program level 2.
