FineLine 170HD Plasma System

3.18 Commission the System

With the System installed and all connections made:
Apply power to the Ethernet router/switch and HMI (starts CutLinc Server
and FineLine UI).
Open CutLinc Server, select Configuration, and then select Commissioning.
Select Reset (Delete) and then confirm.
Select Finished (Restart) and then confirm.
Apply primary power to the Power Supply and then wait at least
3 minutes (180 seconds) before proceeding.
For multi-torch setups, all connected FineLine Systems must be powered.
Select Begin Discovery. The list of discovered devices populates with the
MAC address for each connected device:
• FLGC = FineLine Gas Controller
• FL170, FL300, etc. = FineLine Power Supply
• GHMI = HMI running the FineLine UI
• APC = Advanced Process Controller (optional)
The list of discovered devices should include at least one Power Supply, one
Gas Controller, and one HMI. The Gas Controller will show paired with the
Power Supply it is physically connected to.
For multi-torch setups: Determine which discovered devices are physically
associated with a given torch by selecting the empty cell to the left of a
device's name. The selected device can be identified by observing its status
LED. A selected Gas Controller or APC status LED will illuminate solid green
for several seconds versus flashing at a constant rate. A selected Power
Supply status LED will flash rapidly versus solid illumination.
Ensure Torch 1 is selected.
Select one each of the following devices to move them to the list of assigned
devices for Torch 1: HMI, Gas Controller (paired Power Supply moves also),
and optional APC, if installed.
NOTE: The HMI must be assigned to Torch 1.
For multi-torch setups: Select Torch 2 and assign associated Gas Controller
(paired Power Supply moves also) and optional APC, if installed. Repeat for all
remaining torches.
Select Save and then confirm.
Select Finished (Restart) and then confirm to complete the commissioning
procedure.
