The CNC Bender Low Level Processor Menu has several values that control the timers of loops inside the processor loop. The "processor loop" is the loop that the CNC Processor performs every time it processes a list of commands. The timers control how often each event in the loop is handled.
Fast Loop - High Maintenance Items
The first 5 values are items that need to be handled more often in the loop:
The value range of these timers is usually in the 5 to 10 millisecond range. Setting them to 1 is is like turning off the timers. Making them higher may slow down the perceived response speed of the CNC Processor, but will decrease the load on CPU Usage.
