Tomp,

I think what you are asking is if I have the knee set up as a sort of auxiliary
Z axis. The answer is that I don't have an servo/encoder on the knee - even
though it is motorized, so all of my Z level tool length adjustments that are
too great to be automatically compensated for in the G43H- commands, require me
to stop the program (usually at the next tool change), raise or lower the knee,
insert the next tool, and do a G43H1 touchoff, and just continue with M6T1 /
G43H1 for all the remaining tools. Tedious, but works.

Tom
