Program Test; Tool Management Or "Flat D Numbers - Siemens SINUMERIK 828D Function Manual

W1: Tool offset
18.3 Flat D number structure
Example
Two spindles are defined, spindle 1 and spindle 2, and the following applies:
MD20090 = 2 ; Spindle no. 2 is the master spindle.
M6 ; Tool change desired, command refers implicitly to the master
spindle
M1 = 6 ; No tool change, since spindle no. 2 is the master spindle
M2 = 6 ; Tool is changed, since spindle no. 2 is the master spindle
18.3.6

Program test

MD20110
To have the active tool and the tool compensation included as follows, can be defined via the machine data:
MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK, Bit 3 (Definition of control default settings after RESET/TP end).
Value Significance
Bit 3 = 1 From the last test program to finish in test mode
= 0 From the last program to finish before activation of the program test
Prerequisite
The bits 0 and 6 must be set by the machine data:
MD20110 $MC_RESET_MODE_MASK, Bit 3 (Definition of control default settings after RESET/TP end).
18.3.7

Tool management or "Flat D numbers"

Tool management
NCK active tool management works on the basis of the following assumptions:
1. Tools are managed in magazines.
2. Cutting edges are monitored; limits reached cause the tool to be disabled.
3. Idea behind replacement tools: Tools are programmed for selection only the on the basis of their identifier.
NCK then selects the concrete tool according to the strategy.
Note
For SINUMERIK 828D, this function is only available as option!
This means that it only makes sense to employ tool management when specific tools have been defined and
these are to be utilized by the NCK.
