Coil End Point and the Front Shear feature are intended to be mutually exclusive. If you have a Front Shear you don't need to enable the Coil End Point because the Front Shear implements an automated Coil End Point.
However, a customer had them both enabled and they were getting F0001 Task errors, which indicates something is preventing Inputs from being scanned. This is an indication of an infinite loop that does not give up CPU time for the input task to run..
The exact path of the infinite loop is unknown. What is known is that the Coil End Point was placing the controller into Coast To Stop mode at the same time as it was stopping for the Front Shear operation prompts.
To ensure Feed to Stop press tasks cannot use all of the CPU time in this mode the Feed to Stop function now tests for Coast to Stop mode. If the controller is already in Coast to Stop mode, the function will sleep until the controller has switched to Halted before proceeding.
