CNC Processor can load and run an external program at the moment it changes part numbers in Auto mode.
A new option is in CNC Bender Low Level options list that is called "External File To Run When Part Changes In Processor".
To use this feature, enter the name of the external executable file and CNC Processor will run the program any time a new part number is run in Auto mode. (See the next item for the first program to be called by this feature.)

A new communications program can be run by the new feature described above.
The program loads into memory, loads the current part from the part log, sends the data to the Fanuc robot, then closes.
This method of sending data allows any software developer to create a program that can send data to other computers through networks whenever CNC Processor changes parts.

Several new PREBEND options allow for better control of the seam detect option in the Rotate Axis.
Added new COMDEF to set the seam detect rotate axis jog speed: Set Rotate Jog Speed.comdef
Added new HELP files to explain the new PREBEND seam detect options.
Added Sensor advance and retract COMDEFs (Seam Sensor

Importing older part files now brings the Tool data into memory also.
Older file imports no longer reset the bender name.
New COMDEFS were added:
- Set Rotate Jog Speed.comdef
- Seam Sensor Retract.comdef
- Seam Sensor Advance.comdef

New CIO objects were added:
- Output_SeamDetectSensor_Advance
- Output_SeamDetectSensor_Retract

New help files were added:
- Option_PrebendSeamDetectDegreesPerSecond.rtf
- Option_PrebendSeamDetectFeedAbsoluteSpeed.rtf
- Option_PrebendSeamDetectFeedAbsolutePosition.rtf
- ExternalFileToRunWhenPartChangesInProcessor.rtf
