Tool No: On mainscreen Only shows 0

[rmtucker]

The Tool No : Field on the run screen never changes from 0.
If i type T1 or T1M6 in MDI it stays at 0.
Also if program has T1M6 in it,Still shows 0.
This is development version 1.2111 with UC100 again.
I have the config set to ignore M6 but it also ignores the T1.
Is this a bug or something i have missed?

[rmtucker]

Upon closer inspection it works if i untick ignore M6 and choose the other options.
So should i just empty the M6 macro and use that?

It always worked like that, but is already changed in the next release it will work different with another option too, but you will see in the next release.
For now if you want to see the tool# in the actual tool DRO then yes you can do what you wrote...

You will have to leave teh part of teh Script in teh M6 macro that does teh actual swap from NewTool to CurrentTool. Otherwise it still will not display teh current Tool#.

Yes, that is correct.
