T code command by which
specific tool is specified
To specify a tool directly without executing tool life management by tool
type number, program in the following format.
M_ T_ ;
(NOTE) It is necessary to command in a single block.
M_ M code set in parameter No.13252
T_
When parameter No.13200#0 = 0:
Upper 4 digits : Magazine number (output to <F0026-F0027>)
Lower 4 digits : Pot number (output to <F0028-F0029>)
When T code of four digits or less is specified, the magazine number is
output to < F0026-F0027 > of PMC as one. Please specify the pot number
No.1 when you specify the spindle position and the wait position.
Upper 4 digits : magazine number (11, 21)
Lower 4 ditits : 0001
When parameter No.13200#0 = 1:
Optional number 0 to 99,999,999
When prm.13200#4 is "1"(T code is output to the output signal as it is), the
binary value of the commanded T code is output to <F026 to F029> as it is.
Search by customizing data (only i series model-B)
The search condition of the tool was only a tool of the shortest life in the i
series model A. But, it is also possible to search for the tool whose
customizing data of an arbitrary number is minimum value in the i series
model B. (parameter No.13203#6 SWC=1)
In case of the SWC=1, the number of the searched customizing data is set in
parameter No.13260. In case of the parameter No.13260=3, the tool whose
customizing data 3 is minimum value in the registered tool is searched.
The range of the searched customizing data is 1 to 99,999,999. When a set
value is negative, NC treated as an absolute value. Because NC is treated as
an invalid tool when a set value is 0, the data is removed from the search
target.
