[Function] This signal notifies the PMC that a new tool in a group is selected. This
signal is used when, for example, the tool length compensation amount
of a new tool is to be measured automatically as the tool is selected.

- When a tool group number is specified by a programmed
Txxxxxxxx command, the service life of the tool being used in the
group has expired, so a new tool is selected.
In this case, the code signal for the new tool is sent, then this
signal is set to 1 at the same time as tool function strobe signal TF
is sent.

When the status of this signal is 1, completion signal FIN for the
strobe signal TF is set to 1.
