Select the "Magazine" softkey in the "Tools WOs" operating area.
Press the "Unload all" and "Unload" softkeys.
All tools are unloaded from the magazine.
You can abort the unloading process at any time by pressing the
"Abort" softkey. The current tool is unloaded and then the process is
aborted.
The unloading process is also aborted if you exit the magazine list.
Tools can be relocated within magazines or between different
magazines, which means that you do not have to unload tools from
the magazine in order to load them into a different location.
ShopMill automatically suggests an empty location to which you can
relocate the tool. The magazine in which ShopMill searches for an
empty location first is stored in a machine data code.
Please refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
You can also specify an empty magazine location directly or define
the magazine that ShopMill will search for an empty location.
If your machine has just one magazine, you only need to enter the
location number you require, not the magazine number.
If a spindle location is shown in the tool list, you can also attach or
detach a tool directly to or from the spindle.
Please refer to the machine manufacturer's instructions.
Select the "Magazine" softkey in the "Tools WOs" operating area.
Place the cursor on the tool that you wish to relocate to a different
magazine location.
