===CNC Bender Version===
This feature is available in all CNC Bender software as of version 10.0.5.8 (July 6, 2006).

===What is it?===
The post halt processlist is a text file that contains legal [[COMDEF]] command names and other directives to [[CNC Processor]]. It is the equivalent of a small bend program.

===Flexibility===

This feature’s power is its flexibility. It allows each bender to use custom reactions after a halt event.

===When does it run?===
[[CNC Processor]] runs this processlist after a halt occurs when a bend program is running. A halt occurs any time a program switches from [[Auto Mode]] to [[Manual Mode]] in [[CNC Bender]].

===Sample Post Fault Processlist===
<pre>
Robot_Clear_BenderIsReady
[manualmode]
</pre>

This is a sample post halt processlist in which the “ready” output to a robot is being cleared (so that the robot will not try to collect a part if a fault has occurred). The second step in the list is to switch to manual mode.

===Caution===
As with all hand-customized process lists that are this flexible, please exercise care in choosing the proper commands. (Choosing an incorrect command could cause a machine crash.)

===Location===
The processlist location and name is '''c:\cnc\config\PostHalt.cncprocesslist'''
If the processlist is not present in this location with this name, then it is simply ignored, and no process is run after fault events.
