Fig14.2 Compensation
Tool compensation values can be entered into CNC memory from the
CRT/MDI panel (see section III–8.5) or from a program.
A tool compensation value is selected from the CNC memory when the
corresponding code is specified after address H in a program.
The value is used for tool length compensation.
Table 14.2(a) shows the valid input range of tool compensation values.

The memory can hold 99 tool compensation values.
Address H is used in the program.
The range of the number that comes after the address (H) depens on the
number of tool compensation values : 0 to 99.
