18.6.2 Changing the tool of the spindle
It is possible to change the tool of the spindles from the active tools panel. The tool to be
placed must be defined in the tool table. To change the active tool, follow these steps.
1 Use the cursor to select the active tool to be modified and enter the number of the new
tool.
2 Press the [CYCLE START] key to load the tool automatically or the [ENTER] key to
update the positions list after a manual tool change.
3 The tool list will show that the tool is in the spindle.
Softkey. Description.
Change the units for data display. The softkey highlights the units currently selected
(millimeters or inches).
The selected units are only valid for displaying data. For programming, the CNC assumes
the units defined with the active function G70 or G71, or, when not programmed, the units
set by the machine manufacturer (INCHES parameter).
The CNC will display this softkey or not depending on how machine parameter
MMINCHSOFTKEY has been set.
It initializes the tool table. Initializing the tables eliminates all the tools from the list. It also
initializes the active-tools table and the magazine tables because the available tools have
been erased. The CNC will request confirmation of the command.
Saves the table data in a file. See "18.1.3 Save and load the tables" on page 296.
Recall the table data previously saved in a file. Bear in mind that loading the tool table
initializes the magazine tables and the active-tools table. See "18.1.3 Save and load the
tables" on page 296.
Print the table in the pre-determined printer or save it as a file (prn format) at the CNC.
See "18.1.4 Printing the tables" on page 298.
