the last T command is used as the selected tool.

The Manual numerical value command screen is dis-
played, and tool 1003 is selected.
The workpiece coordinate system shift screen is dis-
played.
When you input "Z0", the cursor moves to the Z axis col-
umn.
Value "Z0." is displayed in the input column.
If you input an axis name that does not exist, the cursor
does not move.
The second and subsequent characters are not consid-
ered to be the axis name and, therefore, the cursor does
not move.
(Example: If you enter "XZ", the cursor is moved on the
X axis, but the cursor does not move on the Z axis.)
The measurement result is set to the workpiece coordi-
nate system shift value pointed by the cursor.
The input column is cleared.
