Check.jpg ENHANCED: CNC Processor - Machine Lube Feature

CNC Processor can control machine lube at a lower level. This enables machine lube to work even when other motion is occurring. These are the changes for machine lube in this version:

  • Depending on the style of switch that indicates the lube is complete, lube complete could be configured to either HIGH or LOW. So now this feature can allow a machine lube switch to be active when it is LOW.

  • In this version , when the feature is active, and the E-Stop is pressed, the lube is immediately stopped.

  • New messages for the machine lube are posted in the Processor log in the CNC Bender user interface.

Check.jpg ENHANCED: Part Filename Mode in Keyboard

Previous versions of CNC Bender would allow characters in part names that made the part name illegal or caused problems to CNC Bender.

  • This issue has been resolved in this version with a keyboard that will make the disallowed character buttons to disappear when in the filename mode.

  • When these characters are pressed on the physical keyboard when this mode is active, then the key presses will be ignored.



The characters filter out are:

  • < (less than)
  • > (greater than)
  •  : (colon)
  • " (double quote)
  • / (forward slash)
  • \ (backslash)
  • | (vertical bar or pipe)
  •  ? (question mark)
  • * (asterisk)
  • = (equals sign)
