The KMF controller is supposed to heat the Shear Wire to an IDLE temperature and then just before a shear, it gets heated up to a READY temperature. The Shear Wire Idle output raises controls the IDLE temperature. The Shear Wire Ready output controls the ready temperature. The IDLE output and the READY output are on at the same time.

During a stationary manual shear, the Shear Wire Idle output and the Shear Wire Idle Time was not being used. This has been resolved.
