Tool cutting edges
Each tool can have up to 9 cutting edges (D1 to D9). The first cutting edge (D1) is set up automatically when a
new tool is loaded in the tool compensation memory. Other cutting edges (up to 8) are set up consecutively and
contiguously using the "New cutting edge" soft key. A different number of tool cutting edges can assigned to each
tool in this way.
