When I generate My program (post ) the line for the tool offset when I call for tool change generates like :
T17M06
G43H0 D01

it should be :
T17M06
G43H17 D017

If I miss the H (hight ) it will bury the tool depending on FLZ . Basically G43H17 D017 tells the control what the offsets are for the specific tool . I've talked to visual mill tech about this , and they told me I don't need it , just erase it if they're right or not , IDK My thinking it should be there . On the good note I'm rollin now Just need to adjust some stick out on 1 of the tools for clearance .
