Start and Transfer could be directly connected.
If start is the wrong polarity it will be permanently on.


Thanks Phill

This machine that I will be putting the 45xp on. Also has a RS485 com port port. But I will get the machine running first then add that later when I find the correct info.

Also it has come with an ohmic cap with the machine torch. I take it would need another THC to use that or could I use the B encoder on the THC-10 I have ? !!

Perfect re the start and transfer. Set the divider to 30:1 and then you won't need THCAD scaling resistors.

Re the Ohmic sensing, check the plasma primer, there is a relay circuit and another which might be a work ion progress that uses a THCAD-5. Its helpful with the 7i96 as it frees up some I/O pins

So at last I have my plasmaC loading.

Tried to use extras and wanted to run a circle but it posts without any F
Where is this done to have a feedrate for extras?

There should be a line F#<_hal[plasmac.cut-feed-rate]> that reads the feed rate from the cut parameters in the Run Panel

You need a valid Cut Speed in the Run Panel before you load/create/reload the file.

Will have a closer look on that, but I think it is not to be changed.

Also you reminded me about expanding the disk, now I get warnings of disk capacity of only 4.2G insteand of close to 30G

How can I solve this? there is nothing in raspi-config

Most probably you have a comma instead of a dot in the ini file, traj section.
