You can change the input fields into toggle fields for the OEM tool parameters.
In so doing, specific values are entered.
You must define the values of the toggle field in Sections TPC1 ... TPC10, by
assigning cursor texts to the values (refer to Chapter 8.10.7 "Defining texts").
Also refer to the example on "Magazine location type" parameters.
You can define the width of the toggle field or the input field to a specific number
of characters. The standard width is 7 characters.
Further, for the input field, you can also specify the data type (integer or double),
however, only if you have not specified a toggle field. If you do not change the
data type, then, the double data type set as default, is used.
[TPC1]
WIDTH = 2
TYPE = INTEGER
In this example, the input fields of the column OEM tool parameter 1 are 2 char-
acters wide. You can only enter integer values in the input fields.
The magazine locations of the buffer are shown, as standard using
symbols in the tool manager lists. You can
assign texts to the location using the configuration file to_mill.ini.
ID for the buffer:
BUFFER
In the section BUFFER, the magazine locations of the buffer are assigned texts.
Magazine location = Text–ID
Valid text IDs and information on defining texts are provided in Chapter 8.10.7
"Defining texts").

gripper 2) are assigned texts for the display in the tool manager lists. A default
text is displayed for additional magazine locations of the buffer.
