TP200 Tool Changer

Is there a way to incorporate into a part program to ask the operator what tool changer slot is currently loaded? PC-DMIS would then accept the slot the operator has specified. My goal is to create a part program in the event that a part program is aborted. I want the operator to be able to move the probe to a safe area for rotation to A0B0 before it approaches the tool changer. Thanks.

  • Perhaps I didn't explain this properly - my bad. Let's break it down by disregarding everything I wrote about the need for this. Simply put, PC-DMIS knows what the loaded probe is. I need to be able to find and grab that loaded probe info, from a measure routine, so I can do whatever it is I want.
