8.1.9.5 Inputting tool life status name data
Tool life status name data is loaded into the memory of the CNC from
a memory card. The input format is the same as the output format.
When tool life status name data with a data number corresponding to
existing tool life status name data registered in the memory is loaded,
the loaded tool life status name data replaces the existing tool life
status name data.
