Shown AXIS TLO Z Offset not stored in #5403 ? was created by altihu
Hi,
after a tool-length probe and setting a tool-length offset, the shown value in the axis display is updated.
(done in o-word subscript)
I thought i would find the "TLO Z" Offset shown on the screen also into the #5403, but this value is 0.
Where is the value stored ?

It should be in #5403. Have you issued a G43 command?

I have done some testing without my subscript, no loaded ngc-file, just with the MDI command field.
" G43.1 Z100 " -> TLO Z shows 100 on the axis display, the regular z-axis is then reduced by 100
" G43 " -> TLO Z shows 0, the the regular z-axis is then increased by 100
then i ve done a "G43.1 Z999" and wrote a test-script that prints #1 up to #5600 to stdout,
there was no parameter number that contains 999

2.6.4 (as you can see in the picture).
I would be surprised to find that this has changed in 2.7, but I am not excluding the possibility.
Can you try the MDI sequence in my example and see what you get?

Sorry, meant to ask the OP.
I have a run across an odd situation with a G43 (in 2.7) and was curious if the two might be related.

Discussing it on IRC, we think that the manual is slightly unclear.
#5403 and friends display the tool _table_ offsets of the selected tool. Independent of any transient offsets.
(Note that I confused myself above because G43 has a higher priority than G10, so the G43 loads the original tool length before the G10 changes it)

Meanwhile I figured out too that #5403 contains the value that ist _stored_ in the tool.tbl, like andy wrote in the last post. I my setup i am using a tool length sensor but i didn't saved the lool length offset into the tool.tbl. Tool length changes every time i change the tool due my tool holder. When I saved the G43.1 measurement - the #5403 is updated.
I dont want to save the tool length offset in the tool.tbl - but i need to check in my "tool measurement script" if there is a TLO Z (stored or not stored) because the _first_ tool has to be touched of to the surface by hand. When the display of the offsets is switched off - my script fails...
Is the _displayed_ TLO Z accessible in some other way ?
linuxcnc-version is 2.6.9
