I think that M6 always will, and that's to be expected.

If this is a random toolchanger (I think anything with tool prep needs
to be) then I think that the trick is probably to drive the carousel
comp from the tool-prep-pocket and tool-prepare pins, and just let
that happen in the background.

net tool-prep-num iocontrol.0.tool-prep-pocket  carousel.0.pocket-number
net tool-prep-start iocontrol.0.tool-prepare carousel.0.enable
net tool-prep-done carousel.0.ready iocontrol.0.tool-prepared

(off the top of my head, errors likely)
