Steeltailor portable CNC plasma cutting machine, compared with the traditional CNC cutting machine, is very simple in use and installation. We will follow the steps below to connect the plasma power source, THC and CNC cutting machine to start the cnc plasma cutting.

1. Connect all the Plasma to CNC interconnecting cables (Refer plasma cutter manual and CNC cutting machine installation manual)
2. Connect the THC connector to the CNC control cabinet.
3. There are totally six wires to be connected with plasma (Refer plasma cutter manual and CNC plasma cutting machine installation manual)
   
   1. CNC START 2 wires to be connected to plasma START pin (This signal is send by CNC to plasma cutter to start cutting)
   2. DIV FINISH 2 wires to be connected to plasma Ok To Move pin (This signal is send from plasma cutter to the CNC)
   3. ARC + wire need to be connected to the positive ARC voltage pin in plasma (For THC machines only)
   4. ARC- wire need to be connected to the Negative ARC voltage pin in plasma (For THC machines only)
4. Set the plasma output, torch spares, and air for the required plate thickness (Refer plasma power source manual for details)
5. Set THC parameters, to set the piercing height (IHS Height), cutting height (Height), the THC tolerance (Sensitivity)
6. Set the controller to Plasma mode: SETUP [F4]----CONTROL [F5]---- PLASMA/FLAME(1/0) set it to 1 for plasma
7. Set the Plasma piercing time according to the plate thickness and you plasma source: SETUP [F4]----PLASMA[F4]----PIERCE TIME (set the time in seconds)
8. Once finished doing the above follow the procedure How to start plasma cutting.
