CNC Bender v11-20100105

Type of Upgrade: New Features and Faster Operation The changes in this version are designed to make CNC Bender perform new tasks and help startup CNc Bender faster.

NEW - "Robot Clear" Protection

CNC Bender can now watch - in real-time - for a "robot clear" input point and block a programmable list of motion if the robot is not clear of the bender. The robot clear input must be HIGH when the robot is clear of the bender. The setup for the feature is in the CNCProcessor.cfg file. The setup includes two lists: 1 - a list of modules to block, and 2 - a list of CIO outputs to block.
When the robot is in the bender and no motion command is being sent to CNC Processor, the interface shows "Robot in Bender".
When the robot is in the bender and motion is being blocked, the interface shows "Waiting for Robot to Clear - Blocking Motion" When the robot is clear - the motion continues automatically.
