The calculation of gripper offset has been improved when gripping around a hem. First, the new parameter Hem Flange No Grip Zone defines a length of a hem that the gripper must avoid. A gripper is allowed to partially grip on a hem (if this value is small enough). A large value will disallow gripping on the hem whatsoever. If this parameter value is larger than the hem itself, it will be ignored, allowing the gripper to postiion right up next to, but not on, the hem.

Another new parameter, Gripper Air Space Offset, augments the existing gripper shape data. This parameter defines the distance from the inside edge (as in, opposite the nose) of the gripper jaws to the backgauge. In other words, Max Gripper Offset minus Gripper Air Space Offset would give the width of the gripper "pads".

Add configuration base for Jorns Twin Pro Closed Loop V2.

Update 5226 firmware package to v4.03.02.

Pathfinder now supports getting it's list of users from an Eclipse Pro installation. With this change there are now two types of Pathfinder user accounts: local and Pro. Local accounts (which traditionally have been ADMINISTRATOR, OPERATOR, and DEMO) remain unchanged. Pro accounts are created in Eclipse Pro, and can be set to one of three roles (Administrator, Operator, None).

To use this feature Pathfinder will need the Pro url adding to it's settings. It will then connect to Pro, but will not be able to access users (or any other data) until a Pro Administrator has authorized them to do so (which simply means said user clicks the "Allow" button that is presented in Pro on a list of connected Pathfinders). Pro users (whom have been granted the correct roles) will be able to log into connected Pathfinders.

Additionally, Pathfinders connected in this way will be reporting a very light initial version of production data. Just enough data to fill out some basic Pro explorers.
