[[Edge Trigger]] logic is used to require a button to be released then pressed before it is considered activated. This is usually applied where it is unsafe to allow a button to be continuously pressed (without release) for machine operation.

Run button inputs require special handling with [[Edge Trigger]] logic, so if [[Edge Trigger]] logic is enabled for either the left or right run button inputs, then CNC Processor ignores the "require edge trigger" setting for those two inputs so that the anti-tie down logic is handled internally.<br><br>

CHANGES to CNC BENDER

Check.jpg NEW - Recent Parts List

Operators asked us to include a recent part file list in the CNC Bender File Load menu. So the feature has been added in this version.

Cncbender recentpartlist.jpg

The list is placed at the top of the file load menu and tracks the last 20 unique part names loaded into CNC Bender. To use the list:

  1. Pull down the list using the down arrow
  2. Select the part to reload
  3. The part will be searched for and selected in the parts list (if it is still in the list)
  4. Press Load

Check.jpg REVISED - PD BOOST Changed to PD ASSIST

We've changed the wording of the PD BOOST to PD ASSIST in CNC Bender to more accurately reflect what the feature is in CNC Bender.

Check.jpg MICELLANEOUS Changes

Cncbender autoadjust bendangle tab.jpg
  • Reset the part name to empty and the parts path to the programed parts path after saving the default configuration file in the Low Level menu.
  • The default tab in the Bender Options - Auto Adjust page is now set to "Bend Angle"
  • For programmable pressures on a PDA axis, the PDA Pressure is now set just before a jog is processed.
