      PLNLAB use to be called STLOC. STLOC – Starting location in table for entering data. STLOC must be greater than or equal to 9. Locations 1 through 8 are reserved for internal parameters. STLOC may also be set to DELETE. If STLOC = DELETE, then all loads defined for the specified section will be deleted and the remaining fields will be ignored. It would appear that we still reserve the first 8 values “for internal parameters”. The spacing (9,14,22…) is strategic to allow room for the other fields when multiple preloads are defined.
