Sensor™ THC 386
Sample Voltage
When enabled, the Sample Voltage feature is used to sample the Arc Voltage being recorded when
cutting at a specific cut height, then that Arc Voltage value will be used when cutting the part instead
of a predetermined Arc Voltage.
Set Arc Voltage
The operator may input the desired Arc Voltage for the material being cut.
Mark Height
The Mark Height setup parameter is used to select the desired cut distance from the plate. This will
set the initial cut height before arc voltage control is activated when operating in automatic mode.
Start Height
The Start Height setup parameter is used to select the desired Start Height. This may be entered as
a multiplication factor that is calculated times the Start Height or an actual Start Height distance.
Voltage Control
This setup parameter allows the operator to select the Sensor THC to operate in Manual or Automatic
mode. Manual mode will disable the torch height control, allowing the torch to cut at the specified cut
height and voltage. Automatic mode allows the THC to command the torch up and down to maintain
the voltage at the specified arc voltage setpoint.
Voltage Tracking Range
The Voltage Tracking Range parameter specifies the allowable variation in arc voltage from the
setpoint. If the arc voltage should go above or fall below this allowable range, the system will fault
and pause cutting.
IHS in Manual
The IHS in Manual setup parameter allows the operator to select whether or not to use the Initial
Height Sense feature when operating the Sensor THC in manual mode.
Retract Full/Partial
Selects the retract distance to be set at Full or Partial. In the Full retract mode, the torch will retract to
the Home position. In Partial retract mode, the torch will retract to the set retract distance.
Partial Retract Distance
This setup parameter is used to select the THC Retract Distance when configured for partial retract
mode.
Start IHS Distance
The Start IHS Distance specifies the distance of travel for the THC to move the torch at high speed
before switching to low speed and beginning Initial Height Sense. Caution should be taken when
selecting this distance so that the torch does not crash into the plate.
