| − | OMCG added the Supravision Network protocol to their Easy Programming 4 version 2.02 bender control software at the beginning of 2019.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | As of version 2.9.18, we've embedded the OMCG SVNET protocol in VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | You can set this protocol in the Benderlink setup grid in System Options.<br><br>

| + | |
| − | Click on the Measuring System button in the toolbar to load the Measure System Interface.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | The window allows you to handle both CORRECTIONS and NOMINAL data.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===NOMINAL EXPORT===
| + | |
| − | * The NOMINAL EXPORT section allows you to SEND NOMINAL data FROM the OMCG software to VTube-LASER.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * The NOMINAL EXPORT Enable allows OMCG to automatically respond to a request for NOMINAL data from VTube-LASER.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===NOMINAL IMPORT===
| + | |
| − | * The NOMINAL IMPORT section allows you to IMPORT VTube-LASER data INTO the OMCG.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * In this case, you can load any Supravision file created by VTube-STEP or VTube-LASER into the OMCG control.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===CORRECTIONS===
| + | |
| − | * You can set a variety of options to control how you want the data to come into the OMCG control.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Recommended settings:<br><br>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | # Enable corrections<br><br>
| + | |
| − | # Set Apply Mode to "Ask" in order to confirm that you will allow the corrections to be applied.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | # Apply the corrections to any of the three options. (Use the checkboxes.)<br><br>

| − | ===Configuring the Settings===
| + | |
| − | * Bender Name: This is mnemonic. It is to help you know which bender is associated with the bender number.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Bender Number: The Supravision network protocol requires that every bend have a unique number if the benders are sharing the same network path for communications.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Paths: These are the paths used for VTube-LASER to communicate with the OMCG software.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Timeouts: These are timeouts that allow the OMCG to know when it has waited too long for data to move in either direction.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Radius Adjust Enable: This allows VTube-LASER to change the radius values with nominal and corrections communications.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Allow negative angle: Wire benders can bend left or right depending on the sign of the bend angle. It is normal to make this feature active.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Invert Correction Sign: This setting should be unchecked for VTube-LASER.<br><br>
| + | |
| − | * Apply Detailed Message: Add verbose messaging to screen dialogs in OMCG by enabling this option.<br><br>
