Following a tool offset, the position of the new tool tip is always displayed as
actual position. The tool offset is taken into account when a target position is
specified.
The range of the software limit switches is recomputed following a tool offset.
Use the following formulas as basis for specification of a tool offset:
In a negative direction:
- Tool offset 32767.999 - |Software end limit switch|
In a positive direction:
Tool offset 32767.999 - |Software start limit switch|
The IP 266 does not execute a tool offset outside the permissible range limits.
