NEW - Servo Status Grid Now Always Visible on Main Screen
|
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. |
|
NEW - BIG Messages
|
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.
|
|
NEW - Press ENABLE to Jog
|
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.

|
ENHANCED - CNC Processor CPU Usage DECREASED 60%
|
CNC Bender was optimized so that CNC Bender / CNC Processor CPU Usage was dropped by an average of 60% without any degradation in bender performance. The typical CPU usage during - even during bending - is now from 8 to 25%, with periodic spikes to 35%.
This optimization will cause operator stations to run cooler and more reliably. |

NEW - KEY Switch to EDIT Feature
|
CNC Bender can now be setup in Low Level to require that a Key be inserted and switched to the EDIT mode on an operator station to allow an operator to edit data on the screen.
The only exception is password entry and the Low Level menu - which requires a password to enter. |
