M6T Remap

I do not know where to ask this but looking over doing a complete remap and I noticed that the actual tool pocket parameter does not push the correct value. The value that is being pushed as "pocket" is the table row the tool code resides in in tool.tbl Can anyone else confirm this??? Thanks

I think this is the reference

Thanks Andy you were right def an older version. I have another question in regards to usage of M6 and T When used together on the same line, T or tool prepare info doesn't get pushed until the next usage of M6 Is this related to older version as well??? Let me know. Big thanks.

Tool prepare should be done before the actual toolchange. Probably whats happening is M6 Tx is doing the toolchange, then setting tool prepare. So your toolchange is using what is in the last toolchange.... When the next M6 comes up it is using the last Tx or what is in the toolprepare bit.

Shouldn't it be Tx M6? Then the M6 would use the new toolprepare......

Thats the way I think it is suppose to be.

Even using TX M6 first same results as M6 TX.......hmmmm

tool-prep-number doesnt carry the Tx ?

It carrys the T, but M6 (remap) doesnt see the updated T if that makes sense......

Then that would be up to your remap code to use it.

o<change> sub
G53G0Z0
G4P0.1
G0 X40 Y-[#<_hal[iocontrol.0.tool-prep-pocket]>*150]
o<change> endsub [1]
m2

using stdglue.py remap for M6, TX is just looped together
