ArcGlide THC Instruction Manual 806450 141
3–Operation
Screen 9 – Inputs from the plasma system
Plasma Inputs: Shows the selected input type based on the settings of the input switches on the THC processor board
(141091). DRY/SOURCED
Motion: Indicates that the torch has transferred to the workpiece and that cutting motion can begin. On/Off
Error: Indicates that there is a plasma system error. Look for plasma errors on the CNC or plasma system. On/Off
Rampdown Err: Indicates that there is an error during the plasma system rampdown. On/Off
Not Ready: Indicates that the plasma system is ready to fire the torch. This turns ON during a change in process while
the torch is purging and not ready to fire. On/Off
CNC-RS422: Indicates whether RS-422 communication is enabled. On/Off
RS422 R and T: If CNC-RS422 is On, this value indicates whether the plasma system is receiving (R On/Off) or
transmitting (T On/Off) serial communication with the CNC.
Screen 10 – Outputs to the plasma system
Corner: Indicates whether corner processing (Corner Current Percent) has been set at the CNC or HMI. This value
should be the same as the value for the CNC input Corner hold (Screen 3 – Inputs from the CNC on
page 138). This function does not work over Hypernet. On/Off
Pierce: Indicates that the plasma system is using the Pierce Control output. On/Off
Hold: Indicates that the Hold output is preventing the plasma system from firing the torch. On/Off
Start: Indicates that a Start signal is being sent to the plasma system. On/Off
Remote On: Shows that the Remote ON output is active. On/Off
