Definition of the
tool magazine
using magazine
rules
You can usually place more than one tool type in a tool magazine. Depending
on the tool, however, surrounding pockets may have to be locked. The ASCII
file *.TCR contains magazine rules for such definitions.
In OEM.SYS, use the keyword TCHRULES = to enter the name and path of the
ASCII file *.TCR.
or
Use Module 9343 to compile the ASCII file with the magazine rules.
Create the file *.TCR with the following keywords.
Keyword Meaning
[magazine]a All the following rules apply to the tool magazine a.
Example: [magazine]4
[search]a = a b ... Definition of the search sequence for the tool type a.
The tool type named first (here a) is searched for first,
then the next tool type (separated by a space) (here
b).
You may only enter tool types in whose pockets tools
of the type a may be placed!
Example: [search]1 = 1 2
[tooltype]a All the following rules apply to the tool type a. 99 tool
types can be specified.
Example: [tooltype]2
[place]a = bx cx ... Description of the pocket a. Define the pockets (here
b and c) that are affected by pocket a when the
current tool type (keyword [tooltype]a) is placed
there. Immediately after the pocket number the
identifier x follows, indicating which area of the
pocket is affected (r = right area, l = left area, b =
bottom area, a = top area)
Example: [place]21 = 20r 22l
You must define the search sequence for each magazine separately, not
just globally at the beginning of the *.TCR file. If the search sequence is to
be defined the same for each magazine, then it must be repeated after each
magazine definition.
