Output Logic
The control comes standard with up to 32 discrete outputs. The Output Logic parameter is used as a
mask to determine whether or not the output is to be treated as a normally open contact or normally
closed contact.
Logic Selection Box
The Logic Selection Box allows the user to select the Logic state for each input to be either normally
open or normally closed. The logic state for the inputs may be switched by selecting the desired
Output and pressing the space key.
Output Selection
The Output Selection box feature is used to define which inputs will be used by the control, and their
physical location on the control interface. All controls are shipped with the default selection of
Outputs and interface locations for the selected control Interface (I/O) configuration.
Output Definitions
Output Description
Spare
Spare outputs are activated through the part program. If a Spare
output is located in the part, the control will turn on the output as
directed. The Spare outputs may be used by use of specific EIA “W”
and “M” codes indicating the output number and function. Refer to
Appendix A in the operator’s manual for a complete description of
these commands.
Torch Up
This output is used to raise the cutting torch. It is activated for the
“Primary Torch Up Time” and the “Pierce Torch Up Time” in oxy fuel
mode. It is activated for the “Torch Up Time” in plasma mode.
Torch Down
This output is used to lower the cutting torch. It is activated for the
“Primary Torch Down Time” and the “Pierce Torch Down Time” in
oxy fuel mode. It is activated for the “Torch Down Time” in plasma
mode.
Ignition Control
This output is used to turn on the igniters in oxy fuel mode or ignite
the plasma system in plasma mode.
Torch Height Disable
/Dual Grid Control
This output is used to disable the automatic torch height controller in
plasma mode. It is activated whenever the current axis position is
within the “Plasma Distance To Corner” or the “Plasma Distance
From Corner” parameters while cutting a part. It is also active
whenever the current cutting speed drops below the result of
(Programmed Cut Speed x (Plasma High/Lo Speed/100)).
This Output is also used to reduce the plasma current in a switchable
current plasma system when the machine speed is less than the
Plasma Hi/Lo speed percentage.
Reduce Current Used with the HD4070 ® , this output switches the plasma to low
current mode.
