    Plasma Table Changing move speed after hitting Stop

    We have a Hypertherm Table with an edge controller and we are running into an odd issue. For some reason when you have to stop the program due to pierce issues for example, when you go forward on path and continue the program, the move speed occasionally changes on us. Some times it's zero, sometimes it's the faster cut speed in the program. If you don't catch it quickly, it can really make a mess. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

    Re: Plasma Table Changing move speed after hitting Stop

    Yes. I've seen this issue on my Micro Edge. It seems that wherever the cursor is located at the time of the stop may change the value in that box. I cannot recreate the issue, it just seems to happen at random. I may be doing something that causes the value to change, but I'm not sure. I have not contacted Hypertherm support to ask them why.
