YLM (Yin Lin Machine Industrial Co.) benders are built in Taiwan and distributed in the Americas by J & S Machine, Inc.

The YLM Windows software allows for complete programming of bender setup.

See VTube Communication with YLM Benders.

The connection the bender is made with standard network connection, and a shared folder location between the VTube computer and the operator station computer.

The YLM control handles corrections differently than any other control. This is how it is unique:

• First, for a CORRECTION, the YLM takes in VTube MEASURED Supravision LRA data. To make a correction to a YLM bender, it is important to send ONLY this data. The standard correction process will not work with the YLM.
  
  
• Second, the YLM sends the correction the wrong way when taking in the MEASURED data and comparing it to its MASTER or NOMINAL data. The only way overcome this is to use a special INVERSION checkbox in the Supravision Export menu. Only use this inversion switch when sending measured data for correction.
  
  

STEP 1
Switch to the MEASURED TUBE window and press the FILE tab.

STEP 2
Most YLM benders use the pure MEASURED data for corrections. However, some YLM benders need the MEASURED data changed into the CORRECTED data - and the CORRECTIONS are always made based on the MASTER data (not the existing data in the bender). We call this "YBC Correction Inversion".

If you find that the corrections move in the wrong direction on a YLM, then check the inversion check box. The inversion check box will only display if VTube knows you are saving MEASURED data to a Supravision file.

STEP 3
Save the Supravision file.

STEP 4
Move to the YLM control and follow the steps below to import the correction.

STEP 1
In the YLM YBC menu, click on CORRECTION.

STEP 2
Search for and select the $$$ file that was created by VTube-LASER.

STEP 3
Select COMPARE to bring the data into the YLM control. The COMPARE button will only display when a file is selected.

NOTE: DO NOT press the IMPORT button for corrections. Pressing IMPORT will make the correction data the nominal data - which would be incorrect.

STEP 4
Press the menu close button in the lower right corner.
