    Is this a new problem, i.e., first time running the machine, or has it worked in the past ands not now? Does the torch move dwon and contact the material then retract a bit, or not move down at all? If it's the latter, check the fuse in the torch height controller box.

    I'm not following. Which cutting program are you using, Torchmate 2 or 3? 2 is the one for the serial signal generators, 3 is for the USB generators. I have both and I can't find the "homing" you're refrring to. There is PROGRAMMING>M-CODE DEFINITIONS where I have lines to turn the torch on and off, but it doesn't "home" the torch. Tell me which program you're using, 2 or 3, and how you navigate to the page where your settings are. Bob.
