Tool offset memory
There are two types of tool offset memories for setting and selecting the tool offset amount. (The
type used is determined by the machine maker specifications.)
The offset amount or offset amount settings are preset with the setting and display unit.
Type 1 is selected when parameter "#1037 cmdtyp" is set to "1", and type 2 is selected when set to
