the settings helped it respond quicker now which is good. Now the torch is dancing up and down it cuts but it goes up and down while cutting. Is this cause I am getting moisture in the torch I see the my electrodes get swirly real quick?

Lower the speed for the THC tab?

Yes, lower the THC speed in the "RUN " tab or panel if you are using PlasmaC.
If using toma_thc config, that setting is on the right side panel, can not recal exact name but the initial value should be 0.200,

I just got a machine torch for my plasma the sl100sv for my thermal dynamics CM52. And it’s awesome the delay for torch fire is very fast but when I am cutting 14g it’s good but when I move up to 1/4 plate I need more pierce delay and after setting the delay to .5 seconds on sheetcam it doesn’t do any difference on the torch fire. Then I set the delay to 1.5s and still the same thing there is no delay when running a cut. Is there is something in the linuxcnc post processor that needs to be edited so it can use the sheetcam settings? Is there somewhere in the GUI that I can adjust to reflect the Pierce delay I need? I know my post processor has the command to use sheetcam settings on cutting speed.

The cut settings including pierce delay come from Plasmac materials settings. About the only thing used from Sheetcam is the tool number and feed rate.

There is a materialverter.py script that exports a Saved Sheetcam toolset to Plasmac. Did you use that?
Does Plasmac have a material set up? Does the material number agree with what is in Sheetcam?
