Thanks for the input. However, how do I get the actual tool number instead of the internal tool number?

If you don't have it yet, you should get Doc on CD, or at least the Tool Management manual, which is available at http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/64914223 I think your machine is a lathe. I only work on milling machines, but I think the concept is the same, just your tools never leave the magazine. You should be able to use the $MYMLN function to get the location of a tool. So, $MYMLN[$P_TOOLNO] should return the magazine location of the current tool. HTH, SteveA |
