CNC Bender User Interface for ProControl

Change to CNC Bender Process List Builder

Automatic FEED Torque Limit When Outside of Range

Now CNC Bender software uses the FEED torque limiting values programmed into the Low Level menu to ensure that any torque levels outside the range are moved into the valid range. This will protect the carriage against very low or high torque values in the CNC Bender Process List.

Changes to CNC Bender User Interface

Update to File Load/Save/Delete User Interfaces

CNC Bender's FILE LOAD menu is reworked significantly based on customer input.
• There is no more multiple path selection with Alias names. This was very confusing for operators, so it has been removed.
• The menu now expands to fill the screen of an operator station.
• The menu has a new file display window that will show the information inside the selected file. This allows you to instantly view the data inside that file before loading it into memory.
• The selection of a new and custom path is much simpler.
• The custom path is considered temporary. It is only used in the current session for that window.
• The custom path feature requires a password for use.

File System Setup Change

CNC Bender's File Path SETUP in Low Level has been changed:
• There is now a single grid that shows seven possible paths for user files like parts, tools, runlists, Supravision parts, etc.
• The path information in this setup grid is used by the main user interface when accessing different types of files.
