Put a variation of this into the FXD sections of your tmp. It re-evaluates the #ZCHK variable. You can change the #TLTYPE options for whatever types of tools you want to test for. See page 152 of the Smartcam Code Generator Guide on your cd for the various options (#TLTYPE=1 is for spot drills, and -1 is for centerdrills.)
