    Trouble with depth of cut M2 control

    I am typing in the Tool File page that a cutter's depth of cut is .500, however it seems to ignore it. It will drop in Z .140, I am not understanding what causes this or how to change it.

    The M2 control will not accept a change to the TOOL FILE depth of cut. Once you set it the control ignores the new data. Why? I don't know. The only way to reset it is to delete the file and reenter the tools again.

    followup on previous post: A way around this is to put in the flute length in the TOOL DATA depth and then you can reduce it in the program if need be.
    This problem was corrected with the M32.
