Need Help in XYZAC configuration.

I have setup 5 axis (XYZAC configuration).
Using QtDragon_HD GUI.
I have measured all offsets using 3D Probe.
And added all offsets in ini file.

When I switch to RTCP mode, Its working nice when I am using that 3D probe. All TCP movements are properly aligned.

But As soon as I change probe to other tool bit of different length. Toolpoint dont follow properly. (I think It needs same length).
I am using manual tool change. Tried measuring tool offsets, Changing tool table. Using G43 to update current tool offset. Nothing worked.

Can anyone guide me proper procedure for this. So that when I change tool, TCP dont misbehaves.
Please outline procedure with sample codes.

Here are settings for kinamatics which are working.
Code:
HALCMD = setp xyzac-trt-kins.x-rot-point -85.775 HALCMD = setp xyzac-trt-kins.y-rot-point -110.570 HALCMD = setp xyzac-trt-kins.z-rot-point -16.942 HALCMD = setp xyzac-trt-kins.y-offset 0 HALCMD = setp xyzac-trt-kins.z-offset -38.7445

This is my POSTGUI.HAL
Code:

If things work with the 3d probe but not with other tools then there is likely a problem with your tool table.

What tool z offset have you set your 3 probe to?

May be you can show us your tool table?

[edit]
Also I notice that you use external offsets for the z axis, are those deactivated when you test things?

I can see tool table is good. I changes on g43 g-code. And also adjusts g54 offsets. But there is no change in machine coordinates.
So do I have change xyzac-trt-kins.z-rot-point pin value to according to tool I am using, everytime I change tool. But I think that should not be the case.
"I notice that work coordinate changes according to tool.
But kinamatics is taking machine coordinates so there is problem in RTCP on every tool change.

The kinematic compensates for tool length.

Are you sure you have connected the required pins:
Code:
HALCMD = net :tool-offset motion.tooloffset.z HALCMD = net :tool-offset xyzac-trt-kins.tool-offset

Thanks for pointing out. Yes I have not set these.

Just Added these in ini file. And it worked.
Thanks a lot. I was struggling for this for so long.
