Loading and unloading of tools into and out of magazine locations
must be enabled in a machine data code.
Function
You can unload tools in the magazine that you are not using at
present. ShopMill then automatically saves the tool data in the tool list

load the tool with the tool data into the corresponding magazine
location again. Then the same tool data does not have to be entered
more than once.
Please follow the machine manufacturer's instructions!
