Tool lenght offset doesn't update with M6 command

[Pweely]

Hello, I am having an issue where the control doesn't update the H value of the new tool when given an m6 command. The weird thing is that it works fine when using the ATC/F7 soft button in the setup page. This is an MPU11 board with cnc12 v4.14 and I have attached a current report.
Thanks in advance

You need to program a G43 and an H code after the M6.

M6 just changes tools; it does not do anything with offsets.

It used to work correctly before our hard drive crashed, all of the code comes from our cam software. The software doesn't put anything in the code other than T# M6.

Maybe you were using a custom M6 macro, to which someone had added a G43 and H command.

I am still using the same macro, it doesn't have g43 or anything for the H value in it. I do have g43 in my post but there is nothing telling the machine which H value to load. This problem is new since we had to reload the control software after the crash. Previously i could just use mdi to change tools and the H value would change with the tool.

As the tool Length compensation "H" is independent of the tool number "T" A G43 must H command must be issued when I tool change is made.
You either had a custom Macro handling this or your G-Code program had to call our the H command, not just the Tool number. This the way the Centroid control has always worked.
