FirstTool

Standard Word: -

Variable: State.FirstTool

Type: Boolean

State variables are all boolean type variables. That is, they only take the value “true” or “false”. Therefore, words are not formed from these variables. “State.FirstTool” variable becomes “true” at the beginning of the operation in which the first cuttng tool is called. It turns “false” again at the beginning of the operation in which the next (different) cutting tool is called.

This variable always remains “true” if only one cutting tool is used in the entire APT/CL file.
