Adjust Register

This is used to set the Tool Length Offset (an integer). Generally this is set the same as Tool Number.  The posted code would output H<#> and the # corresponds to the offset value in the controller’s tool table. Note the post processor needs to be configured to output the Adjust Register.

For example

N20 T1 M6

N30 G43 H1 Z0.25

Where H1 points to the controllers tool table for tool length compensation.
