* This example uses CNC outputs 10, 11, 12, and inputs 11 and 12. Assign the I/O points in the Phoenix software.
** Set ArcGlide plasma inputs to dry (D) using the plasma input switch on the THC processor board in the control module.
* Multiple wires are the same color. Verify pin-to-pin connections before plugging cables into equipment.
** ArcGlide interlock must be closed to enable ArcGlide motion.
