hi i am just implementing the tool changer and i would like to know when setting the current tool with M61 Q02 this should set current tool in spindle to T02 will this also set the iocontrol.0.tool-number = 2 as when issuing the above the tool-number value did not change from 0 to 2 as exspected
does M06 (iocontrol.0.tool-change) go high as soon as M06 is issued or does it wait for the tool prepared function to come back true? as when issuing a T03 M06 i found the iocontrol.0.tool-change did not change state only the iocontrol.0.tool-prepare and tool-prep-number states changed here is snipit of my links into the PLC #(bit, out) TRUE when a tool change is requested net tool-change iocontrol.0.tool-change => classicladder.0.in-06 #(bit, in) Should be driven TRUE when a tool change is completed net tool-changed iocontrol.0.tool-changed <= classicladder.0.out-06 #(s32, out) The current tool number net tool-current-tool iocontrol.0.tool-number => classicladder.0.s32in-00 #(s32, out) The number of the next tool, from the RS274NGC T-word net tool-prep-num iocontrol.0.tool-prep-number => classicladder.0.s32in-01 #(bit, out) TRUE when a tool prepare is requested net tool-toolprep iocontrol.0.tool-prepare => classicladder.0.in-07 #(bit, in) Should be driven TRUE when a tool prepare is completed net tool-preped iocontrol.0.tool-prepared <= classicladder.0.out-07 robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now & Save for Velocity, the Web Performance & Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.
