Software Questions
Why do I receive the message, “Please Remove the Current Tool” when attempting to select
a tool from the Tools menu?
This message indicates that the
“carriage” that captures that tool is
not in the ‘home’ position, or
already has a tool, (or something
else), inside it.
If you are using the simulator for the 1st time, con-
firm that the shipping restraint has been removed
from the carriages and restart the simulation. For
more information, see the Setup section of this
Admin Guide. Restarting the simulation module and
case should cause all carriages to return to the
‘home’ position.
If there is no tool in the carriage, open the lid of the
device and confirm that the carriage in question is in
the ‘home’ position. The ‘home’ position is to the far
right of the device, in contact with the carriage pre-
ceding it, or, (in the case of carriage 1, against the
far right of the device). If the carriage is not in the
‘home’ position, restart the simulation and case.
This should automatically return all carriages to the
‘home’ position.
If a tool is present in the carriage, withdraw it until it
reaches ‘home’ and continue to pull GENTLY on the
tool, keeping it in the ‘home’ position while using the
“No Tool” command, to de-select the tool.
If the carriage is in the ‘home’ position, no tool is
captured within the carriage, and you have re-
started the simulation, and continue to get the
“Please Remove the Current Tool” message, there
may be a piece of broken tool/wire within the car-
riage, or, the simulator is not recognizing when the
carriage is ‘home’.
