8.7.4 Deriving the T number from the specified D number (GETACTTD)
Function
For an absolute D number, GETACTTD determines the associated T number. There is not
check for uniqueness. If several D numbers within a TO unit are the same, the T number of
the first tool found in the search is returned. This command is not suitable for use with 'flat'
D numbers, because the value 1 is always returned in this case (no T numbers in database).
Programming
status = GETACTTD (Tnr, Dnr)
Parameters
Dno D number for which the T number shall be
searched.
Tno T number found
status 0: The T number has been found. Tno contains the
value of the T number.
-1: No T number exists for the specified
D number; Tno=0.
-2: The D number is not absolute. Tno contains
the value of the first tool found that contains
the D number with the value Dno.
-5: The Function has not been executed for some
other reason.
8.7.5 Invalidate D numbers (DZERO)
Function
This command is used for support during retooling. Offset data sets tagged with this
command are no longer verified by the CHKDNO language command. These data sets can
be accessed again by setting the D number again with SETDNO.
Programming
DZERO
Parameters
DZERO Marks all D number of the TO unit as invalid
