Acorn plasma without centroids THC

Post by AWFAB »

Hi all, is there a way to use the acorn board without centroids THC just don't have the money yet.
I do have a Proma THC that I have been using with Mach 3
I want to be able to touch down on the metal then have it fire the torch.
If I go into the wizard under and under "torch touch off" the input is set to 9 and cant be changed.
input 9 is only available if you bought their THC.
and with that you can have it touch off raise to a certain level and fire the torch.

Input 9 is the THC default Ohmic input. If you don't have a THC connected this does not mean anything to your system

The Float switch or Touch off device will need to be assigned in the Wizards Input definition menu.
