#TLC ON Activate tool length compensation
#TLC OFF Activate tool length compensation
CAD-CAM programs take the tool length into consideration and
generate the coordinates for the tool base.
When not having the same size tool for machining, the #TLC function
compensates for the difference between the actual (real) tool length
and the theoretical one (the one calculated).
The programming format is:
#TLC ON [n]
#TLC OFF
The TLC function cannot be selected while the RTCP function is
active.
