Smart mode versus basic mode

By default the system is in smart mode. Hypertherm® recommends that you keep the system in smart mode. But very experienced operators or qualified service technicians can use basic mode to help with troubleshooting if necessary.

Note:

When there is no Hypertherm cartridge communication with the plasma power supply, or when torch communication with the plasma power supply is broken, the system operates as if it is in basic mode, regardless of the system setting.
