Tool Pocket Setup
The Tool pocket table is accessed by pressing the Offset key and then press
the right cursor arrow key to reach the tool pocket column. Enter the pocket
values for each tool used. This table must be properly setup by the operator to
avoid the possibility of damaging tools, the spindle or the tool changer.
Creating a New Tool Table
During the course of operating the machining center it will be necessary to
completely reprogram the tool table. There are two useful functions that can be
used as an aid in creating a new tool table:
Pressing the ‘ORIGIN’ button on the keypad at any time while on the tool table
screen will set all the tool pockets to their default values. For example, tool 1 in
the spindle, tool 2 in pocket 1, tool 3 in pocket 2, etc.
