Attach the file to a post here.
Edit:  Could you also find the .pncconf file in the config directory and post that as well.

The Numbers seem to be ok. It may be that your machine has "safety" resistors installed in series with the arc voltage output although I am still unsure as to whether you use a series resistor or the machine has a  voltage divider because you have entered 24 for the divider/resistor value.

The machine is a Hynade cut 60 DN on the manual for the machine it has listed a 1:1 ratio for the arc voltage out on the 2 pin connector. I also have measured the voltage while cutting at the connection + and - input for the thcad-10 with resistor installed and was getting 5 volts or so.

As a side not i had the resistor installed on the - input wire when i first hooked it up and tryed it a couple of time. After doing more looking at wiring i saw my mistake and fixed it but not sure i didnt damage the thcad-10. So that could be the problem. as well i have only been able to get one led to light up on the board witch says it should have 2 in the mesa manual.
Also a side note plasma machine output pins have around 120 volts on them when cutting without any resistor.
