Enhancements Information

  • Now ALL data found in an FIF file is converted to the Supravision format.
  • Distance data can be automatically converted to the other unit (Millimeters to Inches, or Inches to Millimeters).
  • Improved error handling.
  • This version retains both the XYZ and YBC data intact. There is no forced conversion in one direction or another between the two data types.


NEW Data Included In Conversion

XYZ DATA



  • NEW - Properly skip REFERENCE points in the XYZ data. (Reference points are not intersection or end points. They are not used to define the shape of the tube.)
  • NEW - Retain XYZ data as it exists in the FIF file. No longer attempt a recalc from YBC to XYZ. This allows measuring centers to be sure to retain original XYZ MASTER data during conversion.

YBC DATA



  • NEW - Retain YBC data as it exists in the FIF file. No longer attempt a recalc from XYZ to YBC. This allows measuring centers to retain original YBC bender setup data during conversion.

VELOCITY DATA



  • NEW - Conversion of YBC axes speeds: 1 - 8

FUNCTION DATA



  • NEW - Conversion of all YBC FUNCTION Bits (12345678)

SPECIAL FUNCTION DATA



  • NEW - Conversion of all YBC FUNCTION STOP and LAST Bits
