How to use process IDs to access optimal settings
When you select a process ID from the CNC or XPR web interface, you automatically get the
optimized settings that Hypertherm recommends for that process.
The pre-programmed settings come from Hypertherm’s extensive laboratory tests. Because of
differences in cutting systems, metals, and consumables, it is sometimes necessary to adjust the
settings. However, in most cases, you can expect the best results when you use the default settings
that come with a process ID.
To automatically get recommended settings, select the process ID for the process that aligns with
your needs:
1. Go to the process selection screen on the CNC or the Operate screen on the XPR web
interface.
2. Select the process ID:
a. Examine the list of available processes.
b. Identify the process that best aligns with your needs. For example, choose process ID 1153
to activate the settings for 170 A, 12 mm (0.5 inch), mild steel, O
2
/Air.

Process selection must occur during the Initial checks State (2) of
operation. See
States of operation for the XPR cutting system on
page 197.
3. If none of the processes are satisfactory:
a. Select the closest available process.
b. Send the necessary offset command or commands to adjust the setting or settings as
necessary. (See
Process ID offsets / overrides on page 220.)

If you have an unusual process requirement, contact your cutting machine
supplier or regional Hypertherm Technical Service team for guidance.
Process ID offsets / overrides
You can adjust some pre-programmed settings with an offset or override command. An
offset/override command is a type of serial RS-422 or EtherCAT signal that lets you change the
default value of a setting, within an allowable limit.
For example, if a pre-programmed plasma pressure value is 65, and you want to change it to 70,
send an offset command of 5 (65 + 5 = 70). You can also use the web interface to send the desired
plasma pressure value (70). See
Web interface screen information on page 166.)

Offset settings remain active until you send a new process ID to the
cutting system, or until power is removed from the cutting system.
For descriptions of offset commands and the allowable limits for each adjustable setting, see the
XPR300 CNC Communication Protocol (809810).
