Hi folks. I'm trying to find out what the system variable is for the spindle tool on the above control. I'm making a macro similar to one I did for a Mori horizontal to check tool lengths of tools at tool change to ensure no typos from dopey operator. I've trawled the manuals but can't find which system variable relates to the spindle tool. On the Mori it is #148. Anyone any ideas or know some clever site where I can find system variable lists?
In case a more detailed explanation is needed. My macro looks at spindle tool variable, adds that number onto a the basic variable for tool length and another for tool wear to give total tool length in the offset page for the spindle tool that I then compare to a master program. If it is different by a set tolerance then bing bong alarm. Hope that makes sense.
Thanks
