I figured I'd try once more as I still haven't learned what I need to know. This machine has a "Fanuc" 18i control and I can only enter Tool Length Offsets or Work Fixture Offsets by manually entering the numbers, I'm sure there is an easier faster less prone to human error method of filling in the blanks. Mostly every machine I've ever owned had a 'Tool Cal" button, you simply touch the tool on the part then go to your offset page, highlight the tool number you want and press the tool cal button and the field is populated with the current Z location, same for work fixture offsets. I included two pictures of the control and a key pad that looks like ground zero for entering this information. If anyone knows these controls I would really appreciate the help.
