Push to Free 4.20

Post by Jay Morris »

The push to Free button on the vcp does the same function as the reset button. Version 4.20. Any ideas?

Forgot to grab a report.

I noticed that to. Every time the PUSH TO FREE or PUSH TO PIN is clicked it does perform a RESET but it does free and pin the VCP as well.

One could sell this as a security feature as the case could be made that you should not move around the VCP while the machine is running :lol:
