Hello,
I've bought a plasma machine from China (http://www.aollaser.net/) but later on found out it was from (http://www.feimaicnc.com.cn/Default.aspx), nevertheless, no support from both companies.
Plasma: Huayuan Welder (LGK-100)
Controller: Microstep CC-3SA (www.startsh.com)
Plasma Height Control: Starfire (SF-HC25G0)
When the machine came, the menu was in Chinese language, and the manuals I received did not show how to change the language, so I sent them an email, and they told me to use the code (GG3).
When entering the code a secret menu appears, and since I don't know Chinese, I started selecting one by one until the language changed. Since I am a "lucky" person, the first option was FORMAT CNC It took me ages to reconfigure the machine to a state where I can operate it and cut in the correct dimensions, but I am still unable to make it properly work as it should. Too many arcfail error if I enable "Arc Strike Feedback" while it shouldn't, if I enable Location Feedback (zero plane finder) it just hangs even though there is a switch for that..... and the list goes on.
And for the THC, if I have a plate with a slope, and the torch is going down the hill THC seems to work fine, but if I try to move it uphill it will collide with the plate and make a short circuit.
Does anyone here owns the same or similar hardware who might be able to help?
Thank you in advance.
