The status of up to 20 servo axes are now displayed at all times in a small grid on the main page.

Whenever the states change, the grid cells color changes to either grey, green, or red.

For important events, CNC Bender now displays large messages for short periods of time.

This lets operators clearly know what the control needs them to do next.

Some of our OEM Partner controls require that the operator press the ENABLE button to Jog.

CNC Bender can be set in Low Level to require an ENABLE button for all jogging. If the ENABLE button is not pressed when the joy stick is moved, then the "Press ENABLE to Jog" message appears on the screen.

The following additions have been made to the configuration file:

• Smart Inspect Logging Settings for enhanced logging over TCP/IP connections
• Loop interval changes

ADD these from the CNCProcessor.cfg file:

[Smart Inspect Logging]
Enabled=0
Logging Method=TCPIP
Filename=c:\cnc\logs\cncprocessor.sil
TCPIP Address=192.168.0.190

[Loop]
Main Loop Interval=0.100
Background Read Servo Loop Interval=0.100

Thee items on the right can be removed from the configuration file. They are no longer used in CNC Processor.

Remove these from the CNCProcessor.cfg file:

[Loop]
Power Off Manual Mode Pause=250
Power On Manual Mode Pause=250
Cycle Hold Pause=100

[PRIORITY]
Master Loop Priority=10000
