• If MP7260 = 0, no tool table is used (TOOL.T will not exist). In this case,
you must program the tool length and radius in the NC program with a
TOOL DEF block (see the User’s Manual). There is no automatic tool
management.

7 If you are only using one tool magazine, set the number of pockets in
MP7261.0 and enter MP7261.1-3 = 0. If you use multiple tool magazines,
(See “Managing multiple tool magazines” on page 6 – 411).
• If MP72610.3 = 0, no pocket table is generated.
With Modules 9092, 9093, 9094 and 9096 you can read the tool and pocket
tables and overwrite them.
If an input field is open in the editor at the time the modules are called, this
field is closed automatically.
