CNC Bender v11-20080918

This update includes modifications to:

1 - c:\cnc\CNCBender.exe 2 - c:\cnc\config\help\ToolBoxOptions.rtf

ENHANCED - TOOLBOX FEATURES

The Options Toolbox includes these new features:

1. Select multiple items in a list in order to transfer all of them at the same time.
2. Press a single button to transfer all of the options between the In Use and the In the Toolbox lists.
3. A new button in each option page allows users to put option into the options toolbox without opening the toolbox.
4. A new HELP button is available
5. We discovered and repaired issues with the Toolbox configuration system (The logic that controls how the last setup is recalled and applied to all parts.)

This is an image of the new help screen:

NEW - TOOLBOX PAGE FOR STORING OPTIONS WHEN NOT BEING USED

CNC Bender now allows operators to put their options away - just like tools in a tool box. See CNC Bender Toolbox for details.

The feature is called "Toolbox" and is available for every Dynamic Options List in CNC Bender.

A new Toolbox icon is in every dynamic options page:

The action of putting an option away is as simple moving the option from one list to another using move buttons. When you need them again, they will still be in the box - already set with the value that you used last when transferring them to the toolbox.

NEW - REDESIGNED MANUAL TEST BEND PAGE

The page has bigger buttons and a new Real-time Variable Gearing Profile selection. That means you can use Real-time Variable Gearing in the Test Bend page! You can even edit the Profile before running a test bend.

NEW - LOAD PART BUTTON IN THE FRB MENU

A new LOAD button has been inserted into the FRB page. This saves from navigating through several other screens in order to load data into the FRB menu.

Other Changes

• Now control the home offset of any axis on a user-configurable process lists with the "Home Offset" parameter called "HOF". It is no longer necessary to use low-level software to adjust the offset.

• New Axis Speed grid that can expand to any number of axes in the low level menu.
  

• A new Low Level option allows you to switch the voice messages off in either CNC Processor or CNC Bender or both.
