• Back to CNC Bender Software Updates
• To download the update see the support page.

• The command names for the radius level shifting were often confusing when moving from HEAD shifters to CARRIAGE shifters. For example, on a head shift machine, AllUp meant radius 1. On carriage shift machine, AllUp meant the top radius (2 or 3).

• This ambiguity is cleared up by naming the directional valve positions by RADIUS LEVEL number, rather than "UP" or "DOWN".

• These are the new DEFAULT command names to use:
  • Shift to Radius Level 1
  • Shift to Radius Level 2
  • Shift to Radius Level 3
  • Shift to Radius Level 4
  • Shift to Radius Level 2 From 1
  • Shift to Radius Level 2 From 3
  • Shift to Radius Level 3 From 2
  • Shift to Radius Level 3 From 4

• The radius level COMDEF names can be configured to custom names in the Low Level COMDEF Names Cross Reference menu.

• The Options List tab has been renamed.

• RECAPTURE ERROR RESOLVED: Previous versions of CNC Bender would show a collision error in recapture mode when the PDA is motion controled. The resolution was to separate the PD return from the PDA return COMDEFs.
