6 Perform manual handle feed or jog feed to move the tool until it
touches the measurement surface of the workpiece or reference
block.
7 Press soft key [MEASUR]. The tool length compensation is
stored in the tool compensation memory. If tool compensation
memory B or C is being used, the tool length compensation is set
as the tool geometry value, while 0 is set as the tool wear offset.
The cursor remains positioned to the set tool offset number. To
automatically advance the cursor to the next tool offset number
upon the completion of the setting an offset, press soft key
[MEASUR+], instead of [MEASUR].
8 Once the tool length compensation has been set, the tool is
automatically moved to the tool change position.
9 This completes tool length compensation measurement for a
single tool. To measure the tool length compensations of other
tools, repeat steps 5 to 8.
10 Once the tool length compensations of all tools have been
measured, set the tool offset measurement mode switch on the
machine operator's panel to OFF. The "OFST" blinking
indication is cleared from the bottom of the screen.
