Note
In the example of tool change cycle L6 you must replace "..." with values in
lines "DEF REAL _WWP=..." and "DEF REAL _SPP=...".
Tool change cycle L6 contains the following steps:
1. Position spindle (not when simulation is active)
2. Approach tool change positions in the machine coordinate system
3. Execute tool change (M206)
The tool must be at a safe height after tool change so that all motions in the
plane are permissible.
