G E Mark Century control 2000 80's vintage. Uses
M6 t0101 first 01 is tool # and tooling data (or machine offset) the second 01 (or assignable offset) is used to fine tune process. (some controls will not allow large # to be placed in an assignable offset some .1 others .9999 so tooling data offset or machine offset is used.
Acramatic 2100 uses M6T1D1 as before first t1 is tool # and machine offset d1 is assignable offset.

With this this type of offset system you can control diameters of parts alot easier by assigning different assignable offsets to the same tool but cutting differnt diameters in the same process.
