2.7.1 Define the tool in the tool table (level 1)
When accessing this level, the CNC shows the following screen.
1. Indicating the selected work mode: "Tool calibration".
2. Graphic assistance for tool calibration.
3. Window for tool calibration.
4. Current machine status.
Real X Y Z coordinates, real axis feedrate F, real spindle speed S and currently selected tool T.
5. Tool number and associated offset.
6. Length and offset values defined in the tool offset table for this tool.
7. Nominal life, real life, family and status of the tool defined in the tool table.
Define the tool data
Proceed as follows to define a tool in the tool table:
Select the number of the tool to be defined.
1. Press the [T] key to select the "T" field.
2. Key in the desired tool number and press [RECALL].
If the tool is defined, the CNC will show the values stored in the table. If the tool is not defined,
the CNC assigns an offset with the same number to it and all the data is reset to 0.
Select the number of the offset tool to be associated with this tool.
1. The "D" field must be selected. If it is not, use the [

] [

] [

] [

] keys.
2. Key in the desired offset number to be associated with the tool and press [ENTER].
Define the tool dimensions.
The data for the tool is the following.
Even if the tool length (L) is known, it is recommended to measure it. See "2.7.2 Tool calibration
without a probe (level 1)" on page 57.
Once the measurement has been completed, the CNC update the L and K fields. The CNC assumes
(R+I) is the real radius and (L+K) ass the real length of the tool.
To define these values, select the corresponding field with the [

] [

] [

] [

] keys, key in the desired
value and press [ENTER].
R Radius.
I Radius wear offset.
L Length.
K Length wear offset.
