Note
If the selected magazine location is not occupied in a tool magazine, the command acts as for
T0. The selection of the next occupied magazine location can be used to position the empty
location.
Example
A circular magazine has locations 1 to 20 with the following tool assignment:
Location
1
2
3
4
5 ... 20
The following tool call is programmed in the NC program:
N10 T=1
The call is processed as follows:
1. Magazine location 1 is considered and the tool identifier determined.
2. The tool management recognizes that this tool is blocked and therefore cannot be used.
