3-26 OPERATION Manual 0-5399
Examples: SD4 starts the event timing sequence for piercing up/down routine. The initial values for piercing up time - stay up time
and piercing down time are set to 1 second for this example.
1. Cutting oxygen turned on as torch raises to piercing height. Set SD4 value from .1-.9 seconds.
2. Cutting oxygen turned on during stay up time. Set SD4 value from 1.1-1.9 seconds.
3. Cutting oxygen turned on while torch lowering to cutting height. Set SD4 value from 2.1-2.9 seconds.
Start Move Delay is the time allocated for the initial piercing through the material. After this time has expired, motion automatically begins.
ED1 is the first delay executed after the program is finished or the cut manually interrupted by the operator. This delay is usually used
for the primary raising of the torch after completion of the current cut. This allows the torch to clear any parts, which may have tipped
up preventing damage or misalignment of the torch. Set the value to zero to prevent the torch from raising after completion of a cut.
ED2 is typically not used.
End Move Delay is typically used to allow excess cutting oxygen to bleed off through the cutting tip before rapid traverse to the next
piercing location occurs. This prevents the cutting stream from nicking prior cut parts when the traverse path is directed over a part.
Typically set to 1-2 seconds when the cutting oxygen valve is located on the inlet of torch. If the cutting oxygen valve is located on
the gas manifold, allow additional time.
