Overview of tool parameters
The overview of tool parameters offsets is sorted into a 4-column table.
- Column 1 contains the unambiguous identifier of the axis parameter called the “ID” which consists of the prefix “P-TOOL” and a unique 5-digit number,
e.g. P-TOOL-00001. - Column 2 represents the data structure which defines the parameter,
e.g. wz[i].
The structure is a categorisation aid and is described in the following section. - Column 3 contains the “parameter” with its exact name,
e.g. typ
The important thing is that “structure”+”parameter” always belong together and must be configured in exactly the same way in the axis parameter list,
e.g. wz[i].typ - Column 4 contains the “functionality” in a summarised term/short description,
e.g. Differentiation between tool types.
