hi,

if i change my tool with the command M6 t0123, it meas that i use tool 1 with offset 23. i want to display the used offset (in this example 23) on my screen but i cannot find the right OEM code

thanks

There isnt one and is one of the things that hopefully will be added in the new revision of MachTurn.

Should add of course that if you have a custom M6 Macro for your toolchanger you could have that writing to a User DRO and thus use it for the offsets. How you do that will depend on how your macro is written but with mine I have calls for each tool so its easy enough to do it.

Dont spend too long on it, I was talking through the hole in my ****
I was thinking I had done it on the lathe but when I looked again I saw I had tried to do it and couldn get it. It is one of the things I have asked Brian for when he gets working on turn so hopefullY soon
