Ok so I'm new to all this but making my way thru. I have just switched from Mach3 to centroid acorn with CNC12 software. I'm looking for sheetcam post processor help. It is for a plasma table with a touch and go head. I will be adding a proma torch height controller but for now it is a touch and go set up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 'Mach3 THC with scriber' post should be pretty close. You will need to edit the post and change some of the settings at ths sttart to suit your setup. You can obviously ignore the scriber stuff. Make sure refHome is set to false.

another quick question. I decided to use G31 probe. My question is, what do I modify in my processor to get it to probe at the beginning of every hole? or at least reduce to inches traveled before re-probe.
