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