Ok, I'm not finding it on here. I now have a plasma that puts out an arc good signal, and was wondering how to integrate that into the Gcode. I understand how to connect the signal in and define it in Mach - just not how to make the machine pause motion until it is there. I'm using Sheetcam, btw. Second question - is there an easy way to do corner slowdown either in Mach or sheetcam so it is automatic? Thank you, Jason  |

| If you use the THC300 post file for Sheetcam and click the THC button in Mach it should just work. It will ignore the torch up/down signals if they are not there (no THC), but it will wait for the arc good signal before moving. I can't answer your second question, but that's something I'm interested in too. You can loop corners in sheetcam, but I don't know about slowing. |
