VTube-LASER v1.57

Revision 1.57 Back to VTube-LASER

NEW: Import Supravision Files

You can use Supravision project files to setup VTube-LASER. All appropriate values are imported. (See Supravision entry below).

.

NEW: Transfer New Values in Supravision Protocol

New values are included in Supravision file transfers (imports/exports/bender corrections):

Comment 1 Comment 2 Default Radius A End Offset B End Offset Tube Elongation Percentage Fixed Springback Proportional Springback

NEW: Recall the BENDER MASTER XYZ to Establish the VTube Master

You can now ask the bender to give you the MASTER XYZ data if that data exists on the bender. The toolbar on the right has a new button that allows you to RECALL MASTER XYZ from a bender to create the MASTER data in VTube. Before the transfer occurs, VTube will ask you to confirm that you mean to overwrite the MASTER data in VTube. If the incoming bender data does not have MASTER XYZ data, then VTube will warn you and stop the transfer.

.

ENHANCED: Bender Setup Menu Redesigned

The Bender Setup user interface menu was redesigned. The bender number font size is larger. The toolbar on the right is more compact.

.

ENHANCED: Negative Lengths or Bend Angles are ZEROED

Bender Lengths and angles that calculate negative values are zeroed.

.

ENHANCED: Automatic Springback Compensation for Correction Adjustments

The automatic springback compensation values in the Bender Setup menu are now calculated based on the adjustment value alone. For example, if the adjustment value for a 90 degree bend is found to be +3 degrees, then the springback compensation added to the bend is calculated based on 3 degrees, not 93 degrees. The springback compensation works for both positive and negative adjustments. A positive adjustment will add springback. A negative adjustment will remove springback. VTube will not use springback for small adjustment values. The "Use springback compensation for bend adjustments greater than or equal to:" setting in the Bender Setup menu controls this.

.

NEW: Transfer Master LRA to Setup LRA Springback Compensation

When transferring data from the VTube MASTER LRA to the BENDER SETUP LRA, automatic springback compensation is automatically applied if the springback values are non-zero.

.

NEW: Part Name in Toolbar

The current part name is now displayed in the toolbar below the VTube-LASER logo.

.

NEW- Springback Values Transfer from Overbend

VTube-LASER can now receive springback data from Overbend with the press of a single button in the Overbend Calculator.

ENHANCED - Other Changes
