3 – Torch Height Control Axis Setup
THC Disabled: This status bit turns on when the CNC disables the torch height control, usually as it approaches a
corner in a part, (or a small radius, hole, or pierce), the cutting system slows down, and the actual cutting
speed is slower than the program speed. This bit is controlled by the Torch Height Disable Speed along with
the Distance Before, and Distance After settings on the Speeds screen, and by the M50 (Torch Height
Disable) and M51 (Torch Height Enable) codes in a part program.
Nozzle Contact Sense: This input activates during initial height sense when the torch detects the workpiece.
Nozzle Contact Enable: This output activates during the initial height sense and while cutting if Nozzle Contact is on in
the process screen.
