Change the device that has control

Use these steps to make sure that the correct device has control of the plasma power supply.

The device that first sets a process controls the plasma power supply. For example, if the Computer Numerical Control (CNC) sets the process, all other devices that connect to the plasma power supply after the CNC sets the process can only monitor the data.

Note:

If the Client ID and the Operator ID in the XPR® web interface are the same on your device, you are in control of the plasma power supply.

  1. Remove the power from the cutting system:
    1. Set the line-disconnect switch to the OFF position.
    2. Make sure that the power-indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) on the plasma power supply is not illuminated.
  2. Supply power to the cutting system:
    1. Set the line-disconnect switch to the ON position.
    2. Make sure that the power-indicator LED on the plasma power supply is illuminated.
  3. To select the device that has control of the plasma power supply, send a process.
