Tool call

Just as in Milling mode, turning tools are called with the T function.
You merely have to enter the tool number or tool name in the T
block.
You can call and insert a turning tool both in Milling
mode and in Turning mode.
Tool selection in the pop-up window
If you open a pop-up window for tool selection, the control marks
all tools available in the tool magazine green.
In addition to the tool number and tool name, the control also
shows the ZL and XL columns from the turning tool table.
