Operation
- CNC controls and display
  A Computer Numerical Control (CNC) controls cutting system operation.
- Wireless device controls
  You can use a wireless device to set up and monitor the plasma cutting system.
- Power-indicator LEDs
  An Light Emitting Diode (LED) illuminates to show the power status on the plasma power supply and on other system components.
- Sequence of operation
  A set of flowchart images shows the sequence of operation for the plasma cutting system.
- Process selection
  All of the cutting processes have a process ID that is a unique identification number. Each process ID aligns with a set of preprogrammed values in the cut chart database in the plasma power supply control Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
- Cut charts
  A cut chart contains parameters that are necessary to get optimal results for your cutting process with special materials and thicknesses.
- Torch consumables
  The plasma cutting system uses the same consumable parts for perpendicular-position processes (90° angle) and bevel-cutting processes.
- Example configurations for consumables
  Consumables that are worn or have damage can have a bad effect on cut quality.
  - Ferrous (mild steel) example configurations
    Use these sets of consumables to cut ferrous material. Mild steel is an example of a ferrous metal.
  - Non-ferrous (stainless steel and aluminum) example configurations
    Use these sets of consumables to cut non-ferrous material. Stainless steel and aluminum are examples of non-ferrous metals.
- Recommendations for maximum consumable life
  Consumables are the parts of the torch that wear as they are used. Consumables that are near end-of-life can have a bad effect on cut quality and performance.
- Arc Response Technology
  Arc Response Technology™ lets the plasma cutting system adapt to problems at the torch that can cause decreased consumable life or possible torch damage.
