REVISION Information
10-20070920, September 20, 2007
ENHANCED: Improved and Safer Shutdown
Explanation
- CNC Bender software saves its current state and setup in a configuration files and registry entries software during shutdown.
- If the standard shutdown procedure is bypassed due to a loss of power or a system crash, then CNC Bender, in previous versions, may attempt to write a file - only to be interrupted in the shutdown task.
- The result is a possible corruption of this file.
Solution To Issue
-
This version solves the problem by placing an intentional delay between the time the operator requests a shutdown and the time the configuration data is written to disk and registry.
- The operator requests shutdown of software.
- CNC Bender hides the interface.
- CNC Bender displays a shutdown message on the screen showing a progress bar.
- After the progress bar is filled, CNC Bender saves its configuration data.
- A loss of power to the operator station occurs.
- CNC Bender is not given time to perform a normal shutdown because the delay progress will not be filled.
- CNC Bender will shutdown before it attempts to save a partial file and potentially corrupts the configuration data.
The delay message looks like this. It contains a progress bar that fills over about a 10 second period.
