Tool change manually - how calibrate now tool?

coming from WINPC-NC light means changing tools manually.
Here milling pcb-board insolation - after that having different wholes to drill.
Any hints or tips?
thanks for any help!

Have you read up in the documentation on setting up the tool table?

I do (User Manual V2.5, 2013-01-03
- Chpt: 10.4, 10.5) - they are rather short and maybe helpfull for the writer of this chapters.
Any further hints?

As I do not have an automatic tool changer on my mill or an accurate / repeatable way to set my tool lengths if I need to mill and then drill with different tooling I separate the program into two steps, 1 mill and 2 drill.

So...
Load the milling program.
Install the milling tool
"touch off" to set it's length.
Run the milling program.

Stop the machine.

Load the drilling program.
Install the drill
"touch off" the drill to set it's length.

Run the drilling program.
