5.11 Parameter Quick View
The parameter quick view screen opens automatically when a program is sent to cutting from Promotion Nest or when the Setup button is
clicked. The quick view screen allows the operator to change the most commonly used variable parameters quickly. It also provides options for
plate alignment and advanced set up.
Kerf Width
Specifi es the amount of kerf (compensation) that will be applied to the cutting program. Caution should be taken when selecting the amount of
kerf. To high a value can cause the program to be altered, especially when a radius of an arc is smaller than the kerf value.
Cutting Speed
This is the speed of the cutting process.
Program Rotation
Any value (degree) will rotate the cutting program. When a plate alignment is performed the rotation of the skewed plate is automatically entered
here. Also, by clicking on the +/- 90 the part program will rotate at 90 degree intervals. Clicking on the zero box will clear any value of rotation
to zero degrees.
IHS/Plasma Start
Time for the torch to go ignition height and ignite the plasma arc. Any excess time will be discarded and next delay will be performed (Pierce Delay).
Pierce Delay
This is a move delay after the pierce has started.
Parameter Set (Plasma)
If selected in the Advanced Setup screen, the material type, thickness and tool used will appear here to guide the operator on the current pa-
rameter selection.
NOTE:
Additional delays or adjustable time dialog boxes may appear, depending on how the controller has been set-up by an OEM or installer.
