I know it's not a huge deal for most users but on production machines it would be nice to have a maintenance minder that can remind the operator to run preventative maintenance (grease, clean, change fluids, etc.) on a user defined interval.
Currently I have a resettable hour meter that is powered on when BBCTRL is powered but that isn't tied into actual machine movements so the timer is quite inaccurate. Since I do epoxy inlays and multi-hour cuts, my machine will stay on overnight frequently and those hours shouldn't be tied to the maintenance timer.
I know I could wire the hour meter to one of the load outputs, but a simple user interface would be great as a feature.
