At “New registration of Tool management data”, you can register the
multiple tool management data by specifying the range to the portion where
the tool management data does not exist. The function fails if the Tool
management data has already had a data to the target portion.
“Read Tool management data” also supports the multiple reading by
specifying the range.
As for “Write Tool management data”, considering the process conflict
between PMC and PC, you have to write the Tool management data one by
one. And in order to modify the individual data on one Tool management
data, “Write individual data of Tool management data” is prepared.
The assignment for “Magazine number” and “Pot number” in the Magazine
management table should be done beforehand by the setting of CNC
parameters. At above (6)...(9) functions that handle the Magazine
management data, specify “Magazine number” and “Pot number” as the
argument. And then the data number of the matched Tool management data
is handled.
At “New registration of Magazine management data”, you can register the
multiple tool management data number by specifying the range to the
portion where the tool management data number does not exist. The
function fails if the Magazine management data has already had a data to the
target portion.
“Read Magazine management data” also supports the multiple reading by
specifying the range.
“Write individual data of Magazine management data” can modify the tool
management data number at one Magazine management data.
