Measuring tools

Functionality
You can measure tools manually in the "Manual Machine Plus" operating area. In this case,
the manual tool measurement function accesses the tool list data.
Note
You can access the tool list by pressing the hardkey <OFFSET> and softkey "Tool list".
NOTICE
Tool breakage or workpiece damage
An uncalibrated or incorrectly calibrated tool can lead to dimensional errors or to incorrect
cutting values. If the values entered are very different from the actual tool values, there is a
risk that the tool may break or the mechanism or workpiece may be damaged.
Requirement
Load the tool beforehand or enter the tool number in the "T" field. After confirming the input,
a dialog will prompt you to press the <CYCLE START> key. If this key is pressed, the tool
will be changed.
Note
First approach a machine position where the tool change can be performed without danger.
