    Re: Tool measure

    It looks that there is lack of time, still problem with tool change perexist.

    Now I have question: Is it possible to make TNG start up always with "Machine/Motors/Motors Enable" no checkbox (Off) and some notifications come up? When confirmed motors will enable

    Re: Tool measure

    I am not a "code" man, so I have modified "Expr.txt" file:
    Can please someone take a look to my "masterpice" ;-)

    #OnInit
    print('Expr: OnInit');
    cmd("Machine.Output", 0 ,1);
    cmd("Machine.Motors.Motors_Enable", 0);
    print('Motors OFF');
    msg('Motorji izklopljeni! Vklopi CNC in potrdi');
    cmd("Machine.Motors.Motors_Enable", 1);
    print('Motors ON');


    Is this ok or shoud be done somewere else in TNG?

    Re: Tool measure

    Just saw this post. I have exactly this problem as well. First and second tool are fine (Z as expected) On the third tool change the tool is measured, then on the first move following the M6 it resets the work position/tool offset. At that point I stop the cycle, remeasure the work offset and restart the cycle.

    However, the display now shows the tooltip significantly below the work while cutting a the corrected work height.

    My tools are held in a collet and must be measured on each tool change. I do not use a tool table in PlanetCNC.
