14.15.3 Operation When a T Command (Tool Command) is Executed

When a T command is issued, the specified number in the command is handled as a tool No., then T code data (R536, R537)
and the "T function strobe" signal (XC68) are output.
[Tool life management I/III]
The tool data which corresponds to the tool No. in the tool life management data is output to the R register for the spare tool
(R11800 to R11823).
 The tool No. is output to the R register for the tool No. of the spare tool (R11802, R11803) as it is.
 The group No. to which the tool is registered is output to the R register for the group No. (R11800, R11801). For the tool life
management III, "1" is output.
[Tool life management II]
After the T command is checked, the spare tool is selected.
The spare tool corresponding to the T command (a group No./a tool No. to which the same type of the tool is registered) is
selected by the spare tool selection function. And then the tool data which corresponds to the spare tool No. in the tool life
management data is output to the R register for the spare tool (R11800 to R11823).
 The selected tool No. is output to the R register for the tool No. of the spare tool (R11802, R11803).
 The group No. to which the tool is registered is output to the R register for the group No. (R11800, R11801).
Note
(1) When there is no tool (or group) specified by the T command, "-1" is set in the R register for the group No. of the spare
tool (R11800, R11801). The value specified in the T command is set in the R register for the tool No. (R11802, R11803).
