screen described below.

RS422 Parameter Control

Controls how the Spirit communicates with the X/Y controller and height control system.

If an Inova arc voltage control system is not being used with the Spirit system, RS422

Parameter Control must be disabled. With the RS422 Parameter Control set to

automatic, the Inova is automatically updated with the correct arc voltage, pierce (initial)

height, and cutting (marking) height any time a new condition is loaded, the process

(cutting or marking) is changed, or when the arc voltage, pierce (initial) height, or cutting

(marking) height is changed on the Parameters Screen.

With the Inova Parameter Transmit feature set to manual, the voltage screen is being

displayed will automatically transmit the pierce (initial) height, cutting (marking) height,

and arc voltage set points to the Inova.

Cut/Mark Control

The Spirit system has the capability of plasma cutting and plasma marking with

the same set of consumables. The process (cutting or marking) can be set by

the RS-422 serial interface (COMM), by a hard signal (Hard Wire) on the CNC

interface plug, or locally (Local) through the plasma console.

Hydrogen Cutting (H17)

When hydrogen cutting is enabled, the H17 hydrogen mixture will automatically

be selected as the plasma gas for certain material types and thicknesses. To

prevent the use of H17, hydrogen cutting must be disabled.

Units of Measure

The Spirit system will display Imperial units or Metric units. Press to select.
