All values that can be determined are
determined automatically according to the
active tool type. The geometry of the tool
to be measured is roughly known and
entered in the tool offset. Positioning of
the tool with respect to the calibrated
probe is performed in the cycle. The
geometry must be determined precisely
or wear (initial measurement or
remeasurement of a tool).
The switching positions of the tool probe
refer to the machine zero. The data field
for the tool probe _PRNUM is used:
_TP[PRNUM-1,...].
The switching positions of the tool probe
refer to the workpiece zero. The data field
for the tool probe _PRNUM is used:
_TPW[PRNUM-1,...].
