We had a bug report that the controller was displaying a Missed Shear Target error when it actually should have displayed a Missed Punch Target error. It caused considerable confusion in this particular instance until someone with more experience looked at the customers punch pattern. They had two punch targets too close together. Better error reporting may have saved some time.

The following change is being made to eliminate this issue in the future.

A single function, requiring the press Id will now be used to display this error. This function will check to see if the press Id is zero and if there are gags defined. If there are any gags defined the function will display a Missed Target Error and will display which press has the missed target error. If there are no gags and the press is press 0 a Missed Shear Target error will be displayed.

This change will result in the user always knowing which press to look at when investigating these errors. By still displaying the Missed Shear Target error when we know for sure it is a shear, we minimize the disruption that these sorts of changes sometimes cause.
