Use the M6 Start and M6End macros.
M6 start runs when you get to an M6 in the g-code, and at the end of M6 Start, it will stop and wait for you to change tools. After changing tools,, clicking Cycle Start will run M6End. After M6 End finishes, g-code execution will resume.
You need to configure toolchanges in General Config to Stop Spindle, Wait for Cycle Start.
