THC question was created by bdrotaru
Hello guys
I'm new to EMC2 and Linux so i ask you kindly be very gentle.
I purchased from Agelkom Capacitive THC
The device is sending to pc four signals:
Torch UP
Torch Down
Torch in position (ARCOK)
Probe (Touch Plate)
As long it concern me, iti is a very useful device because it doesn't need to touch never sheet metal.
Can anyone can help me to integrate this device in EMC2?
Thank you in advance

i am not familiar with that device , but if you have a link to the manual or diagram , we can assist further
if they are just signals , connecting into EMC should not be a difficult task , as their are a few plasma users with torch height controls
of various types working fine
