Setting tools on my KMB-1

[mmachining]

I would like to know what is the best way to set tool hieght on my KMB-1. I am going to run a G-Code program and I dont have a pre-setter. I was thinking that its like the accurites, touch tool off then tool cal. then touch it off again when it askes for tool lenght. I am way off Iknow but if you guys got any hins that would be great...

Your on the right track, set your tool up in the controller ie tool #, dia etc. load tool-touch off and with the cursor on tool length press the tool length cal button. This is comming from memory but that is basicly it, you only have to touch off once.
