Hello Andy, Well, I thought about doing that internally in the component. But what I would like to know is if there's the possibility, on future releases may be or as a patch, to let the IOCONTROL only call and wait for the tool change, but not having any register about the tool in use. That can be informed by the external turret component. I think it's better this way for turret tool changers. I know LCNC was born as a milling machine control but may be it's doable without too much trouble. I mean not replacing the way it's working now but having the option.
