The functionality effects the following interfaces:
● NC programming language (data definition for the tool selection, tool change, tool
movements)
● NC variables (data definition and visualization)
● NC/PLC interface
The description of the programming and the multitool data can be found in the following

Manual tools
Manual tools are tools whose data is completely available in the NC, but are not loaded into
the magazine. MD22562 $MC_TOOL_CHANGE_ERROR_MODE bit 1 is used to set as to
whether manual tools are permissible in the system. The automatically selected tool must be
inserted in the machine manually and removed again manually after machining.
The following types of tools are manual tools:
● Oversized tools
● Tools that cannot be stored in the magazine.
● Tools that may not be handled by the gripper system.
Responsibility of the operator
The machine operator must ensure that:
● The data record of the tool positioned on the spindle is actually in the NC.
● The tool that corresponds to the data record in the NC is placed in the spindle.
CAUTION
Machine safety
It is the responsibility of the machine operator to comply with the safety regulations via the
PLC user program.
