Got message "Need tool prepared - Txx- for toolchange"

What's wrong?

It would help to know what you did to get the error. I suspect you issued M6 without a Tn with n being the tool number like T1. You can issue a Tn then later on issue a M6 but not the other way around.

Please, have a look.

T1M6 in the prog work OK, T2M6 causes error msg.
The length compensation for T2 is taken from tool table (see the pic#1)

But next step brings error msg!
What's wrong?

Don't post photos of the G code instead attach the file so others can test the actual code.

Got it.

The trouble was solved by deleting strings #22-24
with and typing instead and at string #32 there was I've corrected it by Now all is OK, thanks.
The error msg appear at T2, so I suppose there was some illegal invisible symbol in the prog, but maybe my mistake in string #32 (N3M6) made such effect.

Code:

N3M6 G43

I've corrected it by

Code:

T3M6 G43

That was the clue!
I couldn't figure out, that the system looks so far forward.
Maybe it'll be helpful for someone.
