Tool change.

[Hostaler]

Hello, good afternoon. My GRBL doesn't recognize TxM06 (normal). I'm trying to make it read the corresponding "script" or the position where each color is located for each color instead of generating code when changing tools. Classic GRBL doesn't support the "T" or "M6" commands, so GRBL-Plotter will comment them out, but I can't get it to work.

You must check this box to apply the scripts on a TxM06 command. :-)
The tool-change scripts themselves are not included in the G-code; they are only applied when the G-code is streamed to the controller.

The blue line in the image says I have to delete M6. Is there a way the program can do it automatically?

(Remove "M6" from the send queue, because grbl cannot handle this command).

Can the program add just the tool (T4 for example) and then retrieve it from its position? Or is there another way?

I saw this video, and the author's motherboard seems to read T4M6.

About the blue marked text:
Perhaps google translation was not good, The text decribes, how GRBL-Plotter works:

• it notice the Tx command and gets the tool coordinates
• it detects the M6 command to insert the correct script
• finally GRBL-Plotter removes the M6 command because standard grbl can't handle this command.

I saw this video....

Yes, my design: https://youtu.be/tVS8A3_E2IY?si=-AL535RTzkgftIXn
