Is there any plans to improve the recipe entry? What I mean is when in EDIT, the keypad comes up but there is no way to set the min and max or control the numbers being entered. I have to do it in the ladder logic looking at the numbers and then deciding if they are a good value. If not I display a message on the screen. Also I would like to see handshaking feature. For now I use the last column in the recipe sheet, I call it LOAD. I put a "1 " there being a Deseret bit. When the program sees this bit go high, I know the recipe has been loaded. Of course I have to reset the bit after acknowledgement.
