It is a shielded cat6 cable. When I first started getting the ethernet error, I thought that my cable had possibly been bent a bit too sharp and that it had been damaged and was the cause of the error. I've tried both cables back and forth both give the same error.

Here is the Amazon description of ...

Finally got a chance to get some pictures of our CNC cabinet. It is actually an old PC box. I'm embarrassed of how it looks. It seemed like a good idea to use the old computer case at the time. As I added more and more things within it got a bit messy. :oops:

I also see that you suggested ...

Sure. I will do that this week when I go there. The machine is set up at a friend's shop.

While going through the steps listed on TB270 I found it somewhat confusing, often being redirected to pages that seemed to be the same steps. I just looked it over again to make sure I didn't miss anything and I see the Stress Test file. I did not run that. I had done the ping tests and all was ...

Thanks CNCKeith for replying. We went through the steps on TB270. Turns out I did have a couple things checked off here and there that should not have been. We replaced the computer a while back and I guess when I redid the current one I missed some steps. I had run the PC Tuner, but a couple ...

My plasma cutter stopped working in the new year and I just left it alone until now. I should have run the report and posted the question right away, but was not able to at the time and now what all happened is a bit fuzzy.(Personal life has been busy and this is basically a hobby machine.)

Sorry, I should really have started a new post as this really would be a new topic. I'll run a report on the machine and then re post as a new topic if you prefer.

Hi again,

Tonight we installed a float switch to use instead of the ohmic sensor. When we test the automatic touch-off cycle with the Torch Touch-off Button on the VCP it measures exactly as it should. But when we try a test run on the flange file included with the install, the torch moves into ...

Update and question:

I got rid of my ProPoint Plasma cutter and purchased a new Everlast with CNC package and a new TX board. I'm planning to fire it up tonight. A couple of questions before I press the button though.

1. I've used the s15195.r1 schematic to wire it up, but I want to run a torch ...

I got out to the shop to do some measuring. I brought along an oscilloscope to see what the output of the CNC port on the plasma cutter puts out. I had already measured this with a voltmeter and saw that it maxed at about 3.7 volts What I was not sure of is if there were voltage spikes that were not ...
