Cycle Hold is the button that sets CNC Bender into a pause state for motion. Cycle Start is the opposite of Cycle Hold.
There are two Cycle Hold states:
- Regular Cycle Hold
- Safe Mode Cycle Hold
Regular CYCLE HOLD
In regular Cycle Hold, the bender pauses, but all axes stay energized.

|
Safe Mode CYCLE HOLD
Safe Mode Cycle Hold is activated when the safety mat or safety scanners are activated. In this state, the bender is de-energizes all axes and most outputs. See the Safe Mode Cycle Hold page for more details.
