__NOTOC__

See [http://advancedtubular.com/customers/cncbender/page-downloads/v12-20130724.html CNC Bender Customer Service Page] for an update.

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] NEW: Press Auto or Manual command then CYCLE START in CYCLE HOLD ===
<table cellpadding=10>
<tr valign=top>
<td width=300>
This new feature allows an operator to press AUTO mode or any manual mode button when in CYCLE HOLD, then pres CYCLE START and activate the command.<br><br>
This feature is good for benders that use palm buttons to keep the bender in cycle hold (for example, the Allen Bradley 800Z Zero Force Touch Buttons shown here).<br><br>
If AUTO mode is pressed while the bender is in CYCLE HOLD, then a large message will display for a few seconds asking for the operator to press CYCLE START.<br><br>

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] NEW: PDA Forward Now Stops During Cycle Hold Button Press===
<table cellpadding=10>
<tr valign=top>
<td width=300>
The PDA motion in a bend stops moving forward if the CYCLE HOLD button is pressed.  (It would stop when the safety mat was stepped on - but not when the CYCLE HOLD button was pressed.)<br><br>

===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] Other Changes===
<table cellpadding=10>
<tr valign=top>
<td width=300>
* Manual button presses when in CYCLE HOLD mode no longer clear the command with the "Use CYCLE START" message.<br><br>
* The AUTO button no longer disables when in CYCLE HOLD.<br><br>
* As with the previous version, COMDEFS can ignore CYCLE HOLD.  For example, the Clamp and PD open commands can programmed to ignore the CYCLE HOLD state - and open even in CYCLE HOLD.<br><br>
