User Instructions
1. Set the system parameters related to tool life management in accordance with the type
of tool life management that is desired. (See system parameter numbers 6800 ~ 6811).
2. When a “M30”-command is used at the end of the machining program, the number 30
is to be set to parameter number 6811.
When a “M99”-command is used for looping the machining program, the number 99 is
to be set to parameter number 6811.
This sets the tool live count restart M-code. Executing the tool live restart M-code will
update the tool life count at the end of the machining cycle. If tool life has expired the
expiration-alarm will occur at this time.
3. Create a new CNC-program for the purpose of registering tool groups and setting of the
tool life data. See sample programs O7000 and O7001 attached.
Executing the tool life registration program registers all tool groups, tool numbers and
tool-offsets along with tool life data.
4. Modify the CNC machining program as follows:
• For non-managed tools, no changes are required in the machining program.
• For managed tool groups, specify the tool group-call command “T + {group
number} + 99”. This command replaces the ordinary tool-call command. For
example, specify T0199, for calling tool group 1. By this command, the system will
select individual tools and tool offsets within a tool group automatically in the order
of tool registration.
• When machining with a given tool group has been completed, end the use of that
tool group by the tool group cancel command “T + {group number} + 88”. For
example, specify T0188, for canceling tool group 1.
5. Resetting (renewing) of the tool life setting is done by means of activating the tool life
reset key. This is done after worn tools have been physically replaced. Resetting will
restore the life of expired tools only. Tool life data of all other tools remains intact.
