AxisForge 1.0.27 Safety and reliability improvements: • Instant disarm — the controller now disarms the moment you leave the jog screen or send the app to the background, so the machine is never armed when you're not looking. • No stuck jogs — releasing a hold-to-jog or disarming now stops motion immediately and reliably. • Smoother jogging — a more stable, lower-latency connection while armed. • General reliability and performance improvements. Always arm only when you're ready to move the machine, and keep clear of the work area.
