It may be used to load and download a tool into the changer arm. See "9.7.2 Load / unload a tool to / from the tool changer arm" on page 201.

Loading a tool into the magazine

The tool may be loaded into the magazine in two ways.

Automatic loading (pressing [START]). A tool previously defined in the table is loaded into the magazine. It is loaded from ground through the spindle.

Manual loading (pressing [ENTER]). It assumes that the tool defined in the table has already been manually loaded into the magazine. It updates the magazine list.

See "9.7.1 Loading / unloading tools to / from the magazine" on page 199.

Unloading the tool from the magazine

The tool may be unloaded into the magazine in two ways.

Automatic unload (pressing [START]). A tool defined in the table is unloaded from the magazine. It is unloaded to ground through the spindle.

Manual loading (pressing [ENTER]). It assumes that the tool defined in the table has already been manually loaded from the magazine. It updates the magazine list.

Initializing the table

(The table can only be initialized when the CNC is "READY").

Initialize (reset) the magazine table. The CNC will request confirmation of the command.

Initializing the tables eliminates all the tools from the list. It also initializes the active- tools table because the tool arrangement in the magazine may have changed.
