9.7 Deploy multitool
9.7.1
Enable the display of a multitool
Displaying a multitool in the tool list
You make the settings for the tool lists in the "sltmturninglistconfig.xml" (turning) file in the
"User"
or
"OEM"
directories of the control. For example, the XML file is located in the "System-
CF-Card/oem/sinumerik/hmi/cfg" directory.
For a detailed description of the procedure and setting options, see Section "Tool management,
Configuring the user interface (Page 228)". A template for the settings is provided in the
directory "/siemens/sinumerik/hmi/template/cfg" with the name "oem_sltmlistconfig.xml".
To display the multitool, you must set the "DisableMultiTools“ entry to the "false“ vale in the
configuration file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<CONFIGURATION>
<SETTINGS>
<DisableMultiTools value="false" type="bool" />
</SETTINGS>
</CONFIGURATION>
Example
The
following example is typical for turning machines with a main spindle and a counterspindle.
For multitools, two locations are permanently set with "Location" distance coding. Location 1
receives the "Toolholder for main spindle" tooltip; location 2 receives the "Toolholder for
counterspindle" tooltip.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<CONFIGURATION>
<SETTINGS>
<DisableMultiTools value="false" type="bool" />
<FixNumberOfMultiToolPlaces value="2" type="int" />
<FixKindOfDistInMultiTools value="1" type="int" />
</SETTINGS>
<MULTITOOLPLACETOOLTIPCONFIGURATION>
