Dependant on the controller and if the tool change macro is available for modifiction if it s its easy to change
If not you may have to adjust the rapid parameter for the machine
Anyone know the variable for reference position? parameter 1240
I wanna modify the toolchange cycle and i want it to feed to the position and not rapid.

Why waste time by feed motion to the reference position. If it is lathe, first home X. If a milling machine, first Z. These are safe motions. Can be at rapid rate.
Tool change macro is available for modifications, i can put all the coordinated inside the macro but there is a parameter which doesn't allow tools to be unclamped/clamped if the machine is not in some of the reference positions, i wanna keep this option ON, i can put the same coordinates inside the problem but i would rather get the directly from parameter 1240.
Parameter 1241 is the value for G30, if set to 0 then it will go to the same place as G28.
#100=PRM[1241]/[1] is what i'm after.
It would work on model D, but not on earlier models where PRM is not defined.
