160 ArcGlide THC Instruction Manual 806450
3 – Operation
AVC Delay: This value sets a number of seconds to allow the plasma system to achieve steady-state operation at the cut
height before AVC begins. After this delay, the AVC is enabled for the remainder of the cut. If the THC is in
Sample Voltage mode, the arc voltage sample is taken after this delay.
Setting: 0 seconds to 10 seconds
Cut Off Time: This value turns off the plasma arc before or after the end of the programmed cut to improve edge quality.
If the value is negative, the torch turns off before the end of the cutting machine motion. With positive values,
the plasma arc turns off after motion stops. This parameter minimizes notches in part edges that can occur
when motion stops with the arc on.
Setting: -1 seconds to 2 seconds
Arc Off Time: This value defines the number of seconds to wait before sending a lost arc signal. This setting allows arc
loss during the remainder of the part to be ignored so the CNC can move to the next pierce point.
Setting: 0 seconds to 2 seconds
Stop Time: This parameter allows a pause at the end of a cut and delays X/Y motion to the next pierce point. This delay
can be used to retract the torch to avoid tip-ups.
Setting: 0 seconds to 10 seconds
Retract Height: This parameter specifies the height above the workpiece to which the torch retracts at the end of a cut.
Setting: 2.54 mm (0.10 inch) to the maximum lifter length
