Access tool table

Press MOD key, select 'Tool table' from the TNC menu to open TOOL.T table.

Use Ctrl+F to quickly search for the specific tool number mentioned in the alarm

Check CAM column

Locate the tool number from the alarm and verify the CAM column entry. Look for empty or invalid cam number.

Do not modify cam numbers while spindle is running

Assign correct cam number

Enter the appropriate cam number based on your tool changer configuration. Consult machine documentation for valid cam number range.

Cam numbers typically range from 1-99 depending on your ATC configuration

Save and test

Press END key to save changes, then test tool call with M6 T[tool number] to verify alarm clears.

Check database integrity

Navigate to MOD > Tool management > Database check to run TNC internal database verification.

This process may take several minutes on systems with large tool databases

Backup current data

Create backup of TOOL.T and related tool files before attempting repairs using File management functions.

Always backup tool data before database repairs to prevent data loss

Restore from backup

If corruption is confirmed, restore tool table from most recent known good backup via MOD > File management.

Check backup date stamps to ensure you're using the most recent valid backup

Rebuild tool assignments

If no backup available, manually re-enter cam and location numbers for all tools based on machine setup documentation.

Access machine parameters

Navigate to MOD > Machine parameters and locate tool changer configuration section (typically MP7xxx series).

Machine parameter changes require proper authorization level and can affect machine operation

Verify ATC parameters

Check MP7210 (number of tool positions) and MP7211 (tool changer type) match your actual hardware configuration.

Document current parameter values before making any changes

Check location mapping

Verify MP7220-MP7229 (tool changer location mapping) parameters are correctly configured for your specific ATC model.

Consult machine builder documentation for correct location mapping values

Restart and test

Perform controlled restart of TNC after parameter changes and test tool change operation with known good tool.

Review tool setup procedure

Access MOD > Tool management > Tool setup wizard to properly configure the problematic tool.

The setup wizard ensures all required fields are completed in the correct sequence

Complete location assignment

Use the tool management system to assign proper magazine location and cam number through the guided setup process.

Ensure tool changer is in safe position before assigning new tool locations

Verify tool data completeness

Check that all required fields (length, radius, cam, location) are populated in the tool table entry.

Use the tool table validation function to check for incomplete entries

Test tool change cycle

Perform manual tool change using M6 T[tool number] to confirm proper operation and alarm resolution.
