insert fixed M-Code before every toolchange command - Fanuc 0MD

[meXtec-marcus]

Hello,

while editing everything was german .. so I thougt it will land in a german forum.

Here again in english:

my Fanuc-0MD forces me to move to toolchange position before changing the tool.
The preowner used a short program linked to function M90 to do that.
Therefore I would like to insert the line "M90" before the tool change line T01 M06.

from:
T1 M6

to:

M90
T1 M6

I am using a modified forum post - original is Fanuc generic (Fanuc for Arnold - post attached)

What do I have to change to make this happen?

Thanks in advance

Best regards
Marcus

Adding the following line of code before line 680 should do it.

writeBlock(mFormat.format(90));

the surrounding segment should look like this after the edit

if (tool.number > 99) {
      warning(localize("Tool number exceeds maximum value."));
    }
    writeBlock(mFormat.format(90)); // This line had been added 
    writeBlock(mFormat.format(6), "T" + toolFormat.format(tool.number));
    if (tool.comment) {
      writeComment(tool.comment);
    }
