Milling Machine With Chain Magazine (T Selection) - Siemens SINUMERIK 840DE Programming Manual

Parameters
T = location or identifier
T2 = identifier
T0

Note
When calling the tool, the
1. tool offset values stored under a D number must be activated.
2. The appropriate working plane (system setting: G18) must be programmed. This ensures
that the length compensation is assigned to the correct axis.
If the selected magazine location in a tool magazine is not occupied, the tool command has
the same effect as T0. Selecting the empty magazine location can be used to position the
empty location.
