ENHANCED - Run Buttons Check for CLEAR to Run Cycle

The processlist builder now uses a "Wait For Run Buttons Clear" command to test for clear run buttons before continuing the cycle to check for a Run Buttons press. This protects against the run buttons being permanently enabled through a failure and causing the machine to run without the buttons being pressed.

ENHANCED - Run Buttons Advance a STEP In STEP Mode only when CLEAR

Now the release of the run buttons is what triggers CNC Bender to advanced to the next step in step mode. The Run buttons RELEASE or CLEAR is the trigger that allows a new step to run in STEP mode. This prevents STEP mode from running as if it is in AUTO if the run buttons are stuck. Now the release of the run buttons is now what advances CNC Bender to the next step in step mode. This enhancement requires the presence of the new command named "Wait For Run Buttons Clear" in the Command Definition library. It also requires two new clear inputs for the run buttons (See the CIO dictionary screen image at the right)

New CIO objects that examine cleared run buttons:

NEW - Feed Bend Distance Adjust Percent in each BEND Option

Now each bend option has its own Feed Bend Distance Adjust Percent value. The value is combined with the values already present in the Tool page. This allows you to adjust the percentage for speed and distance on a per-bend basis.
