REVISION Information
10-20070711, July 11, 2007
NEW: CNC Bender Date/Time
The new clock button in the main menu allows you to view the date/time on top of the interface. The Date/Time window can be moved on the screen by dragging the caption bar of the window.
NEW: CNC Bender Loader Auto Hide
The loader button now hides whenever CNC Bender is running. After CNC Bender unloads, the loader button will re-appear on the desktop.
NEW: CNC Processor Diagnostics Tab Menu
The new diagnostic tab is designed to display this low level values present in CNC Processor:
- Accumulated Bend Count for Life of Machine
- Machine Lube Active (indicator of output state)
- Bend Count Since Last Machine Lube
- Lube Machine At Bend Count
- Machine Lube Duration (milliseconds)
Value 1 - Accumulated Bend Count for Life of Machine
The "Accumulated Bend Count for Life of Machine" value is stored in the AccumulatedBendCount.log file in the c:\cnc\logs folder. This file stores the actual number of bends performed on the bender. A bend is defined as any bend motion - forward or reverse.
Value 2 - Machine Lube Active
This is an indicator of the state of the Auto Lube. If Auto Lube is on and pulsing, then this indicator shows "Active" and switches to a color of green. This value is read-only - which means it cannot be configured in any configuration file.
Value 3 - Bend Count Since Last Machine Lube
This value indicates the accumulated bend count since the last machine lube. This value is stored in the CNCProcessorBendCountSinceLastLube.cfg file in the c:\cnc\config folder. This file can be edited using a text editor.
Value 4 - Lube Machine At Bend Count
This value indicates at what bend count the Auto Lube process will begin. When the Auto Lube process begins, the "Bend Count Since Last Machine Lube" value will reset to zero and start accumulating bends again. This value can be set by editing the CNCProcessor.cfg file found in the c:\cnc\config folder.
Value 5 - Machine Lube Duration (milliseconds)
This value indicates how long the Auto Lube feature will pulse. This value can be set by editing the CNCProcessor.cfg file found in the c:\cnc\config folder.
ENHANCED: The NEXT STEP Font Change
The "next step" box font is changed to another font and made larger to make the text more readable.
CHANGE: Removed All Logic For Auto Lube Based on Part Count
Auto Lube based on part count is removed from the CNCProcessor.cfg file. The Auto Lube activation is now only based on bend count.
FIX: Repaired Auto Lube Feature
The Auto Lube feature no longer lubes the machine during CNC Bender software startup.
CHANGE: Utilities Button Changed to "Diagnostics"
The button name is changed to match the name in the tab menu for consistency.
