o<qt_auto_probe_tool> sub

; IMPORTANT: this remap enables using a gcode/ngc program on machines without
;    automatic tool changers, and without repeatable tool holders, but which
;    do have a tool setter (and ideally, an xyz probe).
;    With this remap, a program or user can issue TxM6 commands at any
;      point and the machine will automatically do the following:
;      1. Move to a tool change position defined in .ini parameters, Z first, then XY
;      2. Perform the normal M6 tool change (IE stop spindle, prompt for tool)
;      3. Move to the location of the toolsetter, Z first, then XY, probe the new tool's offset
;      4. Change the offset of the current coordinate system to match the new tool
;      5. Return the tip of the new tool to the same spot as the tip of the old tool
;            based on newly measured z-offset
;      6. Return control back to whatever state it was in prior, continuing the program
;           if one had been running.
; The following settings should be enabled in the QtDragon interface:
;    A -  Under Probe Tool screens: insure that "Tool Measure" is enabled
;    B -  Under Settings: insure that "Use Tool Sensor" is enabled
;  The following workflow assumes using both a XYZ probe and a Z Toolsetter:
;    1 - Initial Setup: Before beginning the program, setup the Probe Tool as
;        having a zero z-offset in the tool table. (Non-zero tool lengths
;        for the probe tool can be made to work, but have multiple extra
;        steps required, and it is easy to have the tool offset interfere with
;        the remap coding and cause incorrect adjustments to your offsets.
;        This procedure assumes a zero length.)
;    2 - Initial Tool: Load the probe tool with M61 Qx, where x is the Probe tool's number
;        in the tool table. (Do not use TxM6)
;    3 - Toolsetter measure: Use button under the Probe Screens for "Probe Tool Setter
;        Z Height:" this will set and display on the Probe Settings screen the
;        "Probe HT" = #<_hal[qtversaprobe.probeheight> value in ABS coordinates.
;    4 - Workpiece Measure: Use the button under the Probe Screens for "Probe Z height
;        of material:" this will set and display on the Probe Settings screen the
;        "Block Ht" = #<_hal[qtversaprobe.blockheight]> value in ABS coordinates.
;    5 - Set Coord System (G54): Use the Probe Tool and whichever probe screen is
;        appropriate to set the coordiate system XYZ offsets needed for your job.
;        NOTE: Return_Option 3 uses the current local coordinate system, not just ABS coord.
;    6 - Prepare to Run: You may then issue a manual TnM6 command to change the tool
;        before starting the job, or if the job begins with a TnM6 command before
;        spinning the spindle, you may leave the Probe Tool installed.
; !! Take care not to leave the XYZ tool probe in the spindle when a program may start
;    the spindle. !!
