v14.7 - July 11, 2014

• Back to CNC Bender Software Updates
• See CNC Bender Customer Service Page for an update.

Version 14 introduced compatibility with the new Galil module. This revision allows version 14 to communicate with legacy I2T modules also.

This new option, when enabled, allows the operator to take over the control of how ALL dies open after each bend using CUSTOM COMMANDS.

When this command is enabled, none of the dies will open after the bend in which it is enabled.

USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN USING THIS OPTION IN ORDER TO KEEP THE BEND ARM FROM RETURNING TO HOME WITH THE DIES CLOSED.

Prebend confirmation messages and warning messages will display when the new Custom ALL DIES Open option is enabled and AUTOBUILD is run.

The CONFIRMATION message

EVERYTHING Looks OK - but this is a check to be sure you intend to ENABLE "Custom ALL DIES Open" after BEND 2. This means that the dies will NOT AUTOMATICALLY open after this bend unless CUSTOM COMMANDS have been created to handle all dies opening. If this is what you intend to do, then bring the "Disable AUTO and STEP MODE" to its UP position, which will let you run this program.

The WARNING message

WARNING: There is a BYPASSED COMMAND. The option "Custom ALL DIES Open" is IGNORED in BEND 2 because the CUSTOM Commands IS NOT ENABLED for this bend. The dies will open using the standard order. To SOLVE THIS ISSUE, either create and ENABLE CUSTOM Commands for Bend 2, or DISABLE "Custom ALL DIES Open".
