Skip IHS Within
Disables initial height sense at pierce points if IHS falls within the selected distance.
This setting increases cutting productivity. The distance is measured from the end point
of the cut segment to the next pierce point.
Preflow During IHS
Select On to activate preflow during the IHS cycle.
Nozzle Contact IHS
Select On to require the Sensor THC to use contact sense to detect the plate during the
IHS cycle. Use this parameter when cutting light gauge material to prevent plate
deflection.

Input/Output
In addition to the standard I/O options, the Watch window can be configured to include
the status of the voltage tracking for the Sensor THC. This indicates when the automated
voltage tracking has “locked on” and is adjusting the torch height based on voltage.
