I must be really slow. I finally figured out that the instructions are misleading regarding the H_U setting. I put the setting between the start and the cut arc, close to the start voltage. Now I finally get activation of the THC. My next issue is that the computer cannot "see" the torch t...

Thanks Les, I did play with those settings. When I import I have been doing it as a svg file, Your sheetcam does an awesome job! I have had the drawing end up in all sorts of places depending on where I drew the picture in the first program. Easiest is to drag it around in Sheetcam and watch the num...

I use a program to cut vinyl, it allows me to cut "What you see is what you get". I can position the knife where I want, zero the machine and it will cut from that starting point. It has no idea where the vinyl is or the edges or anything like that. I would like to know if sheet cam and li...

My mind is going, not sure if I posted this or just thought about it. Upgraded linux added wine, sheetcam tng and it works beautifully. Put in the Proma sd. As long as I leave the THC unpowered the slgnal flows through and everything is good. When I put power to the THC it suddenly runs the z axis d...

Hi Les, I'm not really sure what happened... My friend put the old stuff back in. We did then try to move the new svg and knife into the old version to no avail. When March rolls around I will get a different computer with more capacity and install latest Ubuntu and then also the latest Sheetcam unt...

Hi Les, My Wine adventure did not go so well so I have version 3 back in there. I did solve the "error in line 11" problem that was caused by the default to ansi2000 or whatever it was! I deleted every option except emc plasma! Works beautifully now. Since I cannot figure out how to get up...

Evening Les, another question for you! I have an old laptop that I use for my vinyl cutter. It has windows xp home edition, it does not have a 25 pin printer port. (The machine with Linux on it links to the motor driver with the printer cable.) I was given a usb to 25 pin printer adaptor cable, Do y...

Hi Les. I should probably not be allowed a computer... I uninstalled the sheetcam and downloaded the latest for Linux. Clicking did nothing at all, after some looking around I found the thread you wrote on using a documents folder and the terminal window. Still nothing. I am attempting to upgrade Li...

Les, thank you for the reply. I am using 3.1.17. The friend that gave me some table parts also gave me his computer. The program was in it already, I thought it would be a good place to start learning. I am not certain that changing the postprocessor will solve my problem, I think it might. Time to ...

Hi everyone! I have been given part of a plasma table and am building the rest. I have a problem and a question. When I run the post processor I get warning about g code error near line 11 G04 P1. As I am using Linuxcnc I would like to change from the current listed ANCA 2000 to EMC Plasma as the po...
