Abbr.
Inputs
CUT
Number of teeth (20 teeth maximum)
LTOL
Permissible deviation from tool length L for wear detection. If the
entered value is exceeded, the TNC locks the tool (status L). Input
range: 0 to 0.9999 mm
Permissible deviation from tool radius R for wear detection. If the
RTOL
entered value is exceeded, the TNC locks the tool (status I). Input
range: 0 to 0.9999 mm
DIRECT.
Cutting direction of the tool for measuring the tool during rotation
TT:R-OFFS
Tool length measurement: Tool offset between stylus center and
tool center. Preset value: Tool radius R (NO ENT means R).
Radius measurement: tool offset in addition to MP6530 between
TT:L-OFFS
upper surface of stylus and lower surface of tool. Default: 0
LBREAK
Permissible deviation from tool length L for breakage detection. If
the entered value is exceeded, the TNC locks the tool (status L).
Input range: 0 to 0.9999 mm
RBREAK
Permissible deviation from tool radius R for breakage detection. If
the entered value is exceeded, the TNC locks the tool (status I).
Input range: 0 to 0.9999 mm

TT:R-OFFS
0 (no offset required because
tool tip is to be measured)
0 (no offset required because
tool diameter is smaller than
the contact plate diameter of
the TT)
R (offset required because
tool diameter is larger than
the contact plate diameter of
the TT)
0 (no offset required because
the south pole of the ball is to
be measured)
TT:L-OFFS
0 (no additional offset
required during radius
measurement. offset from
MP6530 is used.)
0 (no additional offset
required during radius
measurement. offset from
MP6530 is used.)
5 (always define the tool
radius as the offset so that
the diameter is not
measured in the radius)
