I tried editing my .tbl file last night and reloaded, but my offsets did not change. I then exited and restarted EMC2 and the tool offsets were updated. I'm touching off my tool 1 to an X and Z position and seting it to zero. Then I set each tool to the same X and Z and write down the displayed position. Next I open my .tbl file, edit the length and diameter, save. Is this the normal procedure for tool offsets? Is there another way?
