If the tool is to be measured in a tilted position other than that in which the
tool touch probe was calibrated, set MP6500 bit 13 = 1.

Tool measurement with TT 130
Format:
%xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Input:
Bit 13
0: Tool is measured in the tilt position in which the tool touch
probe was also calibrated
1: Tool is measured in another tilt position
Warning
If the tool is not measured in the same tilt position as that in which the tool
touch probe was calibrated, ensure that the tool is perpendicular to the
contact plate!

With MP6500 bits 5 and 6, specify whether the NC program should stop
when the breakage tolerance is exceeded. M4063 is always set when the
breakage tolerance is exceeded.

With bit 11, specify whether the result of "tool checking" measurement is
to be entered in the tool table.

Tool measurement with TT 130
Format:

Input:
Bit 5 – NC stop during "tool checking"
0: The NC program is not stopped when the breaking tolerance
is exceeded
1: If the breakage tolerance is exceeded, the NC program is
stopped and the error message "tool broken" is displayed
Bit 6 – NC stop during "tool measurement"
0: The NC program is not stopped when the breakage tolerance
is exceeded
1: If the breakage tolerance is exceeded, the NC program is
stopped and the error message "touch point inaccessible" is
displayed
Bit 11 – "Tool checking" and changing in the tool routine
0: After "tool checking" the tool table is changed
1: After "tool checking" the tool table is not changed
