3.10 CHANGING TOOL LENGTH COMPENSATION IN THE
LONGITUDINAL DIRECTION OF THE TOOL
Select the mode of changing the tool length compensation in the
longitudinal direction of tool when both the following modes are
selected: Mode of tool length compensation in the longitudinal
direction of the tool (G43.1) and mode of manual handle interrupt
(MOVL and H are on). Then rotate the handle of the manual pulse
generator. The tool length compensation is changed in the longitudinal
direction of the tool.
The change is cleared to zero when a reset or the G49 command is
executed or when the offset number is changed.
