- Type for counting the number of use times
When a life is counted by counting the number of use times, the life
count is incremented by one each time M06 (or an M code for
restarting tool life counting or T code) is specified.
N80 M06;
(1) M code binary value 6 is output to PMC addresses <F010 to
F013>.
(2) Miscellaneous function strobe signal MF <F007#0> is output to
the PMC.
(3) Since a tool change operation has already completed, no tool
change operation is performed.
(4) The PMC sends miscellaneous function completion signal FIN to
the CNC.
(5) The CNC increments the life count for the tool held at the spindle
position (tool management data No. 1) by one.
(6) The life count reaches 1000 (the maximum tool life), so the tool
life expires.
(7) The CNC changes the tool life status for tool management data
number 1 to 3 (life has expired).
(8) The CNC searches for a tool that has the same tool type number
and has remaining life.

(1) When the lives of all tools having the same tool type number
have expired, tool change signal TLCH <F064#0> is set to 1
immediately even during operation.
(2) After a change to a new tool, tool reset signal TLRST <G048#7>
is set to 1.
(3) Tool change signal TLCH <F064#0> is set to 0.
