P200 Okuma Pallet ToolChange with API

Using the API I was able to allow the machine to do a tool change off of a pallet brought in by a Fastems FMS system. M6 tool change cycle is disabled allowing only a G-Code Macro (written by Terry Teeter) to handle all tool changes. Manual tools changes are allowed as are 1 Step operation. the Macro handles all tools changes, any tool designated on the pallet are changed from the pallet and using the API, I set the Active tool and offsets to the correct tool.
