Don't give up I had "issues" when I first got my plasmacam , but between plasmaspider and the plasmacam owners community we got it straightened out. Both sites have exellent people that are willing to help just give it some time.
Good luck

Thank you, Mike. It's just tough to watch that equipment sit there and not be able to communicate with it! lol... The local welding shop is really awesome, but, they have noone that knows cnc plasma cutting. So, I'm trying to ponder my my options. It's obvious they're limited, even if I pay someone top dollar.

The learning curve on these machines is daunting at times..
but believe this, the problems you are having now will be soon distant memories..
These machines can be very frustrating..
Keep at it, you'll get it..

Re: Need Help!Anyone in North TX??Plasmacam/Powermax 45
I have a DHC2 and just replaced my old powermax 380 with a new powermax 45. I had several issues including skipping on startup. I solved all of them by doing 3 things. #1 following the calibration procedure the tech guys e-mailed me. #2 Running the power for the control box to a seperate circuit than the computer. #3 Making sure I ground to the cut sheet not the material supports.
I had no issues with the 380. they didn't surface until I hooked up the 45.Not sure why. Now that I have it running I'm glad I switched. But it does get flustrating.
