You have many possibilities:
- use some outputs to communicate,
- use serial communication with your own protocol,
- use Modbus communication (serial or Ethernet) using the Modbus master plugin.

The tool details page cannot be changed, however, you can reuse the "type" and/or "material type" fields. Also, you can write your own macro/plugin to attach more fields that you load and save yourself.
