Setups 51
Height Control Manual/Automatic
Allows the user to either select a Manual or Automatic Height control for the laser head.
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 Z axis lifter (THC1) in manual mode.
Retract Full/Partial
Selects the retract distance to be set at Full or Partial. In the Full retract mode, the laser head will
retract to the Z-Axis Home position. In Partial retract mode, the laser head will retract to the set
retract distance.
Partial Retract Distance
This setup parameter is used to select the THC 1 Retract Distance when configured for partial retract
mode.
Start IHS Distance
The Start IHS Distance specifies the distance of travel for the THC 1 to move the laser head at high
speed before switching to low speed and beginning Initial Height Sense. Caution should be taken
when selecting this distance so that the laser head does not crash into the plate.
Preflow During IHS
Selecting ON will activate Preflow gases during the IHS cycle.
Nozzle Contact IHS
This parameter would be set to ON to select the THC 1 to use Contact Sense to detect the plate
during the IHS cycle.
Nozzle Contact During Cut
Nozzle Contact During Cut allows the CNC to detect contact with the plate and generates a fault if
this condition occurs.
Pierce Control Manual/Automatic
Allows the user to select Manual or Automatic Pierce control. Automatic control uses sensors in the
Laser head to detect when the pierce is complete. Manual mode uses a preset pierce time and preset
laser program. Automatic mode dynamically controls laser duty cycle.
Pierce Mode Pulse/Blast
When Automatic Pierce is selected the user can select to use a definable pulse output or a single
Blast.
Pierce Complete
The Automatic Pierce monitors the voltage of sensors in the laser head and compares them to the
value set by this parameter to detect the completion of the pierce.
