How do you know which post processor to use for basic plasma cutting?

It depends on your equipment. What plasma cutter, what plasma table controller, etc. If you post what you have, we can advise you on what processor you need.

I have a Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 38 plasma cutter. I'm using Mach3 software. I have a Proma Compact THC but haven't got it set up to work yet.

Thanks

There are a number of Mach3 plasma posts. You could start out with the plain Mach3 plasma post. I'm not real sure what the Proma THC needs, but when you get to that point you might try the Mach3 plasma with THC.
