FANUC Super CAP T/II and Super CAPi T can read the tool data, held
in a tool data file, into system variables #9900 to #9942. FANUC Super
CAP T can also search through the data in the tool data file for a tool ID
number.
FANUC Super CAP T versions 2 orlater, Super CAP II T and Super CAPi
T can read cutting condition data, held in the cutting condition file, into
system variables #9992 o #9996 if ID numbers are already set in system
variables #9990 and #9991. (To read the chuck/tailstock data, different
variables are used.)
The contents of a tool data file can be determined by setting an ID number,
such as the tool ID number of a desired tool, in variable #9999 and reading
#9900 to #9942. Tools can also be searched for.
(1) Variables
To macro variables #9900 to 9941, the data (described later)
corresponding to each variable is read. The data set in each variable
depends on the type of tool. This means that the same variable
number may represent different data, depending on the type of tool.
#9999 – An ID number is to be set.
(Tool ID number) :
To read the data of a tool directly by tool ID number, the ID number
of the tool is to be set.
(Tool type number) :
To determine the tool ID number of a tool by tool type number, the
tool type number of the tool is to be set.
