This is the first time I have tried to use my machine, just got it working, and it has been a few years since I was in school. I have all of the manuals, but nothing says anything about changing the tools so I can get the TLO set. When I go to the tool change screen, it will let me home it, and I can load the changer, but what I am trying to do is manualy change the the tool, so it will change on my screen. It is showing tool 4, and it will home back to tool 4, I need it to change the different tools, so I can make sure it is working before running a program. Does anyone have any info. Thank you
 
I am not familiar with your machine but here goes a basic.
In MDI do a tool change:

T2 M6

this will change the tool to tool 2 and then set your TLO.

I don't know how you would go about running a program with tool changes and changing the tools out by hand without having to stop the program and put the tool in each segment or seperating programs by tool.
