2.10.2 Saving with TOOLENV
Scope of a tool environment
The TOOLENV memory function is used to save any current states needed for the evaluation
of tool data stored in the memory.
The individual data are as follows:
• The active G code of group 6 (G17, G18, G19)
• The active G code of group 56
(TOWSTD, TOWMCS, TOWWCS, TOWBCS, TOWTCS, TOWKCS)
• The active transverse axis
• Machine data MD20360 $MC_TOOL_PARAMETER_DEF_MASK
• Machine data MD18112 $MN_MM_KIND_OF_SUMCORR
• Setting data SD42935 $SC_WEAR_TRANSFORM
• Setting data SD42950 $SC_TOOL_LENGTH_TYPE
• Setting data SD42940 $SC_LENGTH_CONST
• Setting data SD42900 $SC_MIRROR_TOOL_LENGTH
• Setting data SD42910 $SC_MIRROR_TOOL_WEAR
• Setting data SD42930 $SC_WEAR_SIGN
• Setting data SD42920 $SC_WEAR_SIGN_CUTPOS
• The orientation component of the current complete frame (rotation and mirroring, no work
offsets or scales)
• The orientation component and the resulting length of the active toolholder with
orientation capability
• The orientation component and the resulting length of an active transformation
• In addition to the data describing the environment of the tool, the T number, D number
and DL number of the active tool are also stored, so that the tool can be accessed later in
the same environment as the TOOLENV call, without having to name the tool again.
Not in the tool environment
The value of machine data:
MD18105 $MN_MM_NUM_TOOL_ADAPTER
determines whether the adapter length or the tool base dimension is included in the tool
length calculation.
Since a change to this machine data only takes effect after Power On, it is not saved in the
tool environment.
