Saving and deleting of tool data(P-CHAN-00103)

Tool data of the current tool (e.g. wear parameters) can be modified via variable access (V.G.WZ_AKT...) inside the NC program.

To save this data, they are send back to external tool management at selection of a new tool. If a tool was used in a previous NC program, at next program start implicitly a D0 (deselection of tool) is requested. Inside this request at the same time the data of this last used tool were transmitted back to external tool management. So it is ensured, that no modified tool data are lost.

This implicit request of D0 at program start can be controlled by the parameter "d_clear_to_wzv". This flag is only evaluated if an external tool management is present (P-CHAN-00016).Therefore it only makes sense to activate this flag, if the flag for an external tool management is also activated.

Saving and deleting of tool data(P-CHAN-00103) 1:

At Reset no implicit D0 is requested. This means, the data of the last used tool were saved only at the next program start.

This parameter is used only under TwinCAT-systems.
