process. It is used to define the measured diameter/
radius, based on previous experience of how the
effective diameter/radius differs from the measured
diameter/radius when the tool is under load.
Default value: Not used.
NOTE: For cutter centre-line programming
applications, entering the nominal size as an
experience value will result in the error being stored
instead of the full radius/diameter of the cutter.
R05=j j= Experience value for length.
This value is the difference between the measured
length of the tool and the actual length when the tool is
under load during the cutting process. It is used to
refine the measured length, based on previous
experience of how the effective length differs from the
measured length when the tool is under load.
Default value: Not used.
R11=h h= Tolerance value that defines when the tool is out of
tolerance.
When this input is used, the tool offset is not updated if
the tool is found to be out of tolerance.
Default value: No tolerance check.
R13=1. Tool out of tolerance flag.
Using this flag prevents a tool OUT OF TOLERANCE
alarm from being raised.
