(4) Random position tool change
In tool change, a spindle tool is usually exchanged with a magazine index tool. It may often occur,
however, that tool change must be performed at a station other than the usual tool change
position (tool change at auxiliary tool change position, for example). This command is used in
such cases.
(Note 1) Tool change position differs depending on
whether magazine No. starts with "0" or "1".
However, the substantial consequence does
not differ.
(Note 2) When pointer is not used, R4715 should be
set to "zero"
(Ex.) MOV K0 R4715
