2 – Machine Setup
Hold Ignition: Is part of the Sensor THC operation to hold ignition of the external Plasma Supply. This output can be
tied back to the CNC through the external voltage divider card or direct to the power supply depending on
configuration.
Ignition Control: Turns on the igniters in oxyfuel mode or ignites the plasma system in plasma mode.
Key Press Indicator: Activated whenever a key is pressed on the CNC.
Laser Start: Used exclusively with the laser cut logic to activate the laser system.
Lifter Low Speed: Operates with the manual Raise/Lower inputs from the operator console to move an Oxyfuel lifter at
a slow speed for manual jogging of the torch. This output is active during the period set by the Lifter Low
Speed timer on the Oxyfuel Process screen.
Low Preheat Control: Enables the low preheat gas when cutting in oxyfuel mode. It is activated for the “Low Preheat
Time” when initiating a cut.
Marker Control: Activates the marker tool during the marking process. Traditionally, the marker tool is activated through
the combination of Marker Enable and Cut Control outputs. All the noted options are available and can be
configured on the Marker Setup screen for the desired process timing and operational results.
Marker / Marker Enable: Activates an external marking device. It can only be activated by the appropriate “M” code in
the part program. For more information, refer to the Programmer’s Reference.
Marker Enables: Used for external logic. The appropriate output(s) is on during marking, based on the Marker Select
inputs.
Motion Indicator: Activated whenever the CNC is commanding machine motion.
N
2
Select: Used by the Optional APC to enable the use of nitrogen while cutting.
Nozzle Contact Enable: Active during Sensor THC IHS. This input is tied back to the CNC through the external
voltage divider card. This output can also be used to switch an external drive system to low output mode (if
equipped) during IHS for stall force workpiece sensing.
Peck Drill Cycle: This output is activated with an M94 code in the part program. It activates an input on a PLC that is
controlling a tool cycle.
Pierce Control: Used by the plasma and oxyfuel cut logic to send an output to the torch during the pierce. This output is
on for the duration of the Pierce Time selected in setups.
Plasma Enables: Used for external logic. The appropriate output(s) is on during plasma cutting, based on the Plasma
Select inputs.
Plasma Select: Activated whenever the CNC is in the Plasma cutting mode.
Preheat Control: Enables the high preheat gas when cutting in oxyfuel mode. It is activated for the “High Preheat Time”
when initiating a cut.
Program Running: Active any time the CNC is operating within a part program.
Reduce Current: Used with the HD4070 to switch the plasma to low current mode.
