I'm trying my best to understand, google translate does such a poor job.

Is there a sensor the indicates each index?

Does this input turn on once for each index?
net turret-position-strobe_sensor hm2_5i25.0.7i77.0.0.input-18 => classicladder.0.in-04

Ok, one method you can initialize your counter is to create a homing routine in your ladder.

If your in position 1 skip homing and set position counter to 1
If not in position 1 index counter 8 times, when position 1 is reached reset position counter to 1
when finished set tool number and set tool change finished.

You will need 2 counters one to do the homing index and the one for position.

Of course there will be a bit more logic needed but this is the general idea.

To do this in a simple way and make the code easier start in position 1 and before you turn the machine off move to position 1. Issue a T1 M6 G43 from a MDI button to set the current tool.

I hope this gives you some ideas to work with.

jlviloria,

I tried to open up your .clp file but it was corrupt. Did you create that with LinuxCNC 2.5?
