    Tool Management on NLX2500/700

    Hey everyone,

    I am trying to get the Tool Life Counter to work on our NLX2500/700. I have done all the things that the Tool Management book tells you to do, Building the tool shapes, how there held in the machine, Tool numbers, Group numbers, how many times the tool can be used, and it still will not work. I have even tried to push the "Monitor Mode" button and still nothing. Is there a "G" code or "M" code that starts the Tool Life Counter like the G313 does for the Load Monitor system? If there is the books don't have it. It is so frustrating when you put so many hours in making all the tools and then putting them in the turret in the Tool Management page, plus the time in reading the books and it don't work. I have to be over looking something and I just can't find it.

    Thanks,
