I have a Techiks 1980's machining center with 16 tool carousel. During a tool change it lost its position so now when I call t2 up it changes to tool 3. It is off by one tool position. Is there a paremeter that I can call up to tell the control what tool position is up ??
Thanks in advance for your help.

That's going to be in your data diagnostics (D###) in your diagnostics menu. If you are lucky you may find the tool numbering easily, likely when you starting seeing something similar to a list of 1 to 16.

Try diagnostic D501-D516. On some fanuc Om machines,they determine what position your tools are in.

But change with caution. first check the value of the Diagnostic.
D501=01
D502=02
D503=03
D504=04
etc.
If they are not listed that way then your machine must be different.

I was not able to see any pattern in diagnostics so I pulled the indexing motor out and moved the carousel by hand and then reset motor in place.

D442 and D447 Indicate tool pocket at change position and tool in spindle

Hi michaelpaul13 and Jim Green

I have the same problem with our Kryle VMC 500B with a Fanuc 0m. The tool change is off by 3 plots. Like Jim said I already noticed Diagnostic parameters 442 and 447 and changed them by hand. But when start a program the machine indicates the right tool numbers, but still picks up the wrong one. When I restart the machine even the 442 and 447 parameters are false again.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve my problem?

manually move the correct tool pocket for the tool in the spindle to the change position. then change D442 and D447 to match. hope this works for you.

On my OM machine, parameter 382 is for magazine position,and 387 is for tool in spindle. And input binary value.

make sure you're looking at the diagnostics page and not at the parameter page.

This helped me. My machine is a Chevalier 2025VMC with Fanuc 0M. The diagnostic parameter for the tool magazine index is D0502 and for the tool in the spindle is D0510

Hello,
in my vmc 700c fanuc om the D0500 on my is D0320 and the D0502 on my is D0322 and the D510 on my is D0360.
D0361 is where it is the umbrella in which position and the D0362 is atc+- buttons by one when i press the one of the two buttons which i have on the keyboard.
My D0320 is stack on number 7 and I can not change it to number 20 (my umbrella has 20 tools) and the D0322 when i change it to correct position manual when I restart the cnc change again alone to number 5.
How can I change those two diagnostics and when I restart do not change?
Thanks

How to solve this?
