Abort
The tool is not relocated.
Start
The tool is relocated to the new empty location.
Use magazine number 9998 to move a tool to or from a spindle
location.
When relocating from the buffer, the previous location information is
entered by default. This applies to fixed-location-coded and variable
tools.
5.3.8 Tool master data in the tool catalog
Function
You can create tool master data in the tool catalog. A set of data can
be created for every tool in use.
Advantage Master data which apply to the tool, regardless of which cutting edge
you use, do not have to be reentered for each tool, but can be copied
from the tool catalog (in the tool cabinet) for each tool used.
Ideal tools The tool catalog contains only "ideal" tools.
"Ideal" tools are characterized by the relevant tool "master data" (i.e.,
with ideal tool dimensions, no wear, etc.). An "ideal" tool is uniquely
defined by its "Tool name".
