Default Cutting Parameters
In order to initialize parameters on a Spirit system an external device must
communicate, in sequence, the material type, material thickness, process (cutting or
marking) and the cutting current. Once the Spirit system receives the cutting current, all
other parameters will be set to their default values. Whenever the material type,
material thickness, process or cutting current is changed, new default values will be
retrieved for all other parameters. If a changed is desired, cutting current must be sent
last for the updated to occur, To use non-standard parameters, first set the material
type, material thickness, process and cutting current (in sequence), and then set the
remaining parameters (i.e. Pierce time) to the desired values.
Troubleshooting Serial Communication
When troubleshooting serial communication with the Spirit system, switch to the View
Serial Communication Screen to view incoming and outgoing data. See Section 4 for
information on the RS-422 Tab.
