Not all Fanuc controled machines use the M6. It depends how the machine builder
chose to have it set up. (We have 3 that don't use M6 and one that does) Also
on our Fanucs at least, the offsets are not at all tied to the tool number.

I've never delved to deeply into how these are setup and the subs that do it
are hidden and protected. All you do to change tools is type T3 press start
and the machine puts away the tool in the spindle (if there is one) then picks
up tool #3. Two or our machines that do not use M6 are 0i and

That's cool. I bet their wireless protocols are rigorously tested.
Do they allow payload dropping for overhead loads via wireless?
