FireControl Freezing During Cutting & How to Fix it!

Unfortunately no. I don’t believe that you can use a high frequency cutter with this setup. A true HF plasma cutter can actually freeze and damage your computer let alone let you run programs!

This model of AHP cutter is a blow-back start ‘low frequency’ plasma cutter but it is one of their first generations of blow-back start cutters that we suspect had some lingering electronics components from their previous generation of HF start plasma cutters. As a result, it seems to give more trouble than a standard plasma cutter. From the noise issues that some customers are explaining to us, it isnt as severe as what we saw with this AHP. We simple couldn’t even fire the pilot arc without it crashing FireControl whereas other users have been able to get midway through programs before issues show up.
