Hello Everyone, why not read this variables in fan0m.ctl or how add these variables? Related topics encountered in the network but without answers.
#12001-#12400  or  [#_OFSDW[n]]   Tool compensation value (D code, wear) Subscript n represents a compensation number (1 to 400)
#13001-#13400  or  [#_OFSDG[n]]    Tool compensation value (D code, geometry - tool radius) Subscript n represents a compensation number (1 to 400)

Re: Variable macro B

For about 20 years we have been asking CGTech for a true "C" type tool offset table in Vericut.  One that supports Len, Len W, D, DW. for each table entry.  No luck yet.  Maybe if more people ask...
We add 800 variable entries to our control to support  "C" type offset 1-199.   (I wrote a script to generate the code when needed).  Example

For the first entry 10001:
<Group Name="10001" Type="variable" Description="TL Value" Field="0">
      <ConditionMacro>
        <Macro Name="TableIndex" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="value"  Value="1"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="TableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="expression"  Value="#10001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="SetTableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="text"  Value="Tool Length Compensation"/>
        </Macro>
      </ConditionMacro>
    </Group>
For the second 11001  Notice the TableValues definition:

    <Group Name="11001" Type="variable" Description="TL Value" Field="0">
      <ConditionMacro>
        <Macro Name="TableIndex" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="value"  Value="1001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="TableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="expression"  Value="#11001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="SetTableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="text"  Value="Tool Length Compensation"/>
        </Macro>
      </ConditionMacro>
    </Group>
For D:
<Group Name="16001" Type="variable" Description="CC Value" Field="0">
      <ConditionMacro>
        <Macro Name="TableIndex" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="value"  Value="1"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="TableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="expression"  Value="#16001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="SetTableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="text"  Value="Cutter Compensation"/>
        </Macro>
      </ConditionMacro>
    </Group>

    <Group Name="17001" Type="variable" Description="CC Value" Field="0">
      <ConditionMacro>
        <Macro Name="TableIndex" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="value"  Value="1001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="TableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="expression"  Value="#17001"  Units="0"/>
        </Macro>
        <Macro Name="SetTableValues" Scan="no" AfterMotion="no">
          <Override  Type="text"  Value="Cutter Compensation"/>
        </Macro>
      </ConditionMacro>
    </Group>
