add extra tool to M6 macro.

Hello.
I am new to edit Macro.
and hoping to get some help here in this forum ;)
I have a Stepcraft M1000 where I have 10 Tools in my ATC.
and all tools are working when I am using the tool changing system.
But...
I have made a Extra Tool holder, there is different from the original Stepcraft tool holder, since I will have a bigger surface mill in my tool changer.
so I need to add an extra tool I my M6 Marco which can handle my Tool 11.
Tool 11 will have another z pickup and release point, and the sequence when picking up and releasing the tool also have to be deferent, since the tool have to retract in Y direction after picking it up and retuning to the tool holder in Y before releasing it.

lets say tool 11 have:
ToolX[11] = 75.0; // Tool11 X position
ToolY[11] = 1042.0; // Tool11 Y position
and the
Ztoolrelease = -87.0;
Ztoolpickup = -87.0;

i have added the M6 macro i am running the 10 tools in my ATC.

hoping someone can help me :)

will add some pictures later of the machine with tool holder 11.

Best regards Søren From Denmark
