General Mach Discussion / Re: Tool table T word

T0127 means
tool is in turret place 1
Offset is used from tool number 27 in tool table

T0227 means
tool is in turret place 2
Offset is used from tool number 27 in tool table

T0601 means
tool is in turret place 6
Offset is used from tool number 1 in tool table

and so on...

TXXYY
the XX part is used to know where to rotate the turret
the YY part is used to know the Offset data
because noramly you will have more the 8 Tools bus only 8 places in turret.

---Shouldn't the M3home go out if I disconnected the sensor altogether?

this is depending on your wiring and on the configuration of the Inputs.
maybe a lose/broken is your Problem, but knowing nothing about your
wiring/confiuration makes it hard to help.

without any knowledge about your wiring it is very hard to help, but there should be a enable Input on the Motor Driver.
you will have to follow the wiring of this Input witch is probably switched by a relay for all three Drivers.

just a thought, maybe i am thinking to easy.
why not turning the nozzles on/off by customized M call's

for example:

G1 X10 F100
M200 'turn nozzle 1 ON
G1 X20
M201 'turn nozzle 1 OFF
