This section describes the parameters that are used to configure a tool
magazine or turret or other tool changing device. When a T-word is
programmed that requires a tool change, these parameters are used to set
the number of different tool positions and the direction of rotation of the
tool turret and magazine. Figure 22.2 shows a typical mill tool magazine.
Important: These parameters are used only in conjunction with the
random tool software option.
