If you had an ATC, it would execute some procedure to change the tool and then inform EMC that the change was completed. There is a hal pin commanding the change that needs to be linked to a hal pin signaling the change is complete, if you have no ATC mechanism.
There is a better way to do this, but it involves adding another hal component to your configs files. See http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Tool_Changes for some more info on this.
