Tool offsets - newbie problems
«

Hi
First are there any good tutoials on this topic.
I have been attempting to setup my tool offsets. No luck so far.
I just noticed something strange on the program run screen under Tool Info.
That when the code is running the second tool 2 is not displayed.
Why would this be? In the code I assigned tool numbers and I see them
in the G code.
Could this be the reason the second tool is not offsetting correctly?

For tool offsets to be used your program must have a G43

Hi
I just changed the code to G43. Ran the code and still no luck. The Tool Infomation
never updated to show tool 2 had been used. I assume that is the function of Tool Info.

Graham knows much more about G Code than me but after your M6T2 line I would have G43H2 to call the offset for tool 2.
However it should still show up in the toolpath window that tool 2 has loaded, just no offset has been applied.
