Is there any way to set the tool length offset during a tool change on an Anilam 3000? I know that you can set up the tool length offsets in the tool table prior to executing a program but what about DURING a tool change? If I use an end mill in a collet or a drill bit in a chuck how can I set up the offset ahead of time. It seems that, during the tool change pause, I should just be able to insert my end mill into the R8 collet and then jog down and set the z length offset but I cant seem to figure out how to get the jog to work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
