This page describes how to use VTube-LASER to correct NUMALLIANCE benders.

Back to VTube-LASER

Contents


NUMALLIANCE CORRECTIONS

VTube-LASER has an export option for NUMALLIANCE MES files that are used to correct the NUMALLIANCE benders.

Note: NUMALLIANCE benders only require the measured data for corrections.

Measure the tube in VTube-LASER, then send the MEASURED tube data to the bender control, and it will then perform the correction.

Follow the steps below.

STEP 1

Press the Bender Setup button. (These steps assume that you have measured the tube and have setup VTube-LASER with the NUMALLIANCE protocol.)

STEP 2

Set the bender number. It should say NUMALLIANCE like shown here.

If the data in the window is not correct, then import the data from the main VTube-LASER memory by clicking on "Setup this Window" then clicking on "Copy Master LRA to Setup LRA".

In the "Correct the Bender" menu, click on Auto Send.

A save file dialog will open and allow you to name the MES file on a thumb drive or on the network. This file will be imported into the NUMALLIANCE control.

STEP 3

At the NUMALLIANCE control, press the CAD button.
