Having issues with getting my plasma to fire in firecontrol I used the cable langmuir offers for this and also the CNCport add on Hypertherm offers and I cant get it to fire via firecontrol, I can manually fire it and it even shows up on the THC voltage, I am not using the machine whip but just the standard whip that comes with the machine. I double checked all my wiring and the plasma div it is set to 50:1, but can not get it to fire… not sure why, almost dempted to ditch the cnc port add on from hypertherm and simply hard wire it in.
Do you have a 4t and 2t setting?
Change it…
Can you move the torch manually with FireControl?
Can you fire it from FireControl using the manual fire? Or are you firing it from the torch handle switch?
What is the THC voltage showing when it’s not firing and when it is?
Do you have the CNC port cable connected to the VIM box and then the VIM cable to the Crossfire Control box plugged into the DIV port on the VIM box?
I ended up finding the issue - You must have a machine torch not the Duramax torch. If you have the Duramax then you have to take pin 6 out of whip connector ( the part you plug into your machine and put that pin into pin 8 slot, I was able to do that and it worked well, I do have to zip tie the trigger though.
Thanks
