3.13.13.6 Change tool components (SETTCOR)
The SETTCOR function is used to change tool components taking into account all general
conditions that can be involved when evaluating the individual components.
Note
Regarding the terminology: If in the following, in conjunction with the tool length, tool
components are involved, then the components considered from a vectorial perspective are
meant, which make up the complete tool length (e.g. geometry or wear). Such a component
comprises three individual values (L1, L2, L3), which are called coordinate values in the
following.
The tool component "geometry" therefore comprises three coordinate values $TC_DP3 to
$TC_DP5.
Syntax
<Status> = SETTCOR(<CorVal>, <Comp>, [<CorComp>, <CorMode>, <GeoAx>,
<Stat>, <T>, <D>, <DL>])
Meaning
