Automated Plasma Interface 465
FineLine Overview
Hypertherm Automation controls offer the additional option of interfacing directly to INNERLOGIC‟s
FineLine Power Supply for setup via a user selected RS-422 serial port. This advanced feature
transmits all necessary power supply settings from the control directly to the FineLine power supply
configuring it for use.
The power supply setup is performed through the use of a Cut Chart (cut process parameter
database) which is based on eight process variables. The combination of these eight process
variables are tied to the settings for the cut process parameters (e.g. arc voltage, pierce delay, etc.)
that are transmitted to the supply. For additional convenience, consumable part numbers for the
FineLine are displayed at the Change Consumable screen.
This database allows the user to select factory recommended settings or amend the database for
personalized settings. The Cut Chart information may be saved or loaded via the hard drive or floppy
drive. Specialized Cut Chart files containing the factory recommended settings are available from the
control vendor.
The Power Supply parameter must first be enabled in the password protected Station Configuration
setups to allow the Cut Chart Information for the feature to be enabled for use. Once selected at the
Station Configurations screen, the port must then be selected for communications on the Ports setup
screen and the selected port must then be configured as RS-422. For more information on
configuration of the port, refer to the Ports information section of this guide.
