    If you are using the Powermax600 machine torch...the start signal is easily accessed on the short pigtail that is part of the torch leads. Attached is a picture (can be found in your operators manual) of the machine torch pigtail.

    Often the pigtail is used with a simple manual on/off switch (as pictured), however you can use the pins listed (pins A and C will fire the machine torch when shorted together) as the start input.

    If you are using a hand torch...you will have to read the electrical diagram (also in your operators manual) and will have to cut and splice the start trigger wires either inside the torch, or inside the power supply. As a Hypertherm employee I cannot provide specific instructions for interfacing the hand torch as you will be modifying the torch safety trigger circuit.

    To original poster, did you ever hook up your 600? Attempting to do the same thing and using a pac123 torch. About to wire up the same thing
