Is it so hard to press the "pulse torch" on the GUI before starting a job ?

I think it would be handy to have the air flow start just before the torch starts probing on each probe, not just as the beginning.

Would you please enlighten me as to why as i am baffled from this. Once i start a job, the air never goes off until the job is finished and this is true for over 15 machines i deal and work with besides 2 of mine. The shortest post flow i have encountered is 15 seconds some over 100A ones have a full 1 minute of post flow.
Thinking of it, maybe, just maybe having a long table and a slow machine.... :)

I think the slow machine comment has explained what I was seeing. On my Hypertherm 125 the post flow must be rather short. I was having the air go off before the next probe.

I only just recently change my Z axis acceleration and velocity settings and now its running very quickly so I might not have the issue. I dont have Hyper sensing set up just yet to check.

Well i thought of the worst case scenario and sure enough you are there ! :)
Sorry for requesting you to make that info public. :)
Now you mention it, a while back there was a Hypertherm 125 on sale here used, fortunately a friend of mine bough it, unfortunately that same @sh00le of a friend sold it to someone else after i repeatedly told him i want it. I unfriended him on "LIFE" :)

Hmm, some plasma cutters have control over the postflow duration but Hypertherm does not.
Do you ever have trouble with ohmic sensing? If not, its not an issue then.
