Release of motion blocks during T-selection(P-CHAN-00106)

The T-word can cause waiting periods during normal processing, because the communication between NC-channel and external tool management must be synchronized. Because of the buffering of the NC-channel this behavior can lead to a blocking of a certain number of motion blocks programmed before the T-word. By setting t_with_implicit_flush = 1 it can be forced, that all motion blocks up to the T-word are executed. The mechanism behind is an implicit released "#FLUSH CONTINUE" (see. [PRG]) initiated by the T-word.

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.
