Program editor: tool in subprogram

Robot Programming
1

Hello
I am recently new to VC, and I just programmed a welding curve which works fine. Since I added some small subprograms to change a tool, everytime I run it the tool in my welding subprogram changes to “Null” instead of weld_tip. I guess it has something to do with the tool changing, but I have no idea why.

Ps. At the end I want to take off the SME part but it is attached to the positioner, is there a possibility to detatch it after the welding loop.
