Esab Ultrarex UXD-P2000 Upgrade Project

-disable auto volts
-disable void sense
-set VAD to 50%
-set cut speed to 1500
-set pierce height to 3
-set cut height to 2.5
-set pierce delay to 0.2
-set cut voltage to 90
Adjust cut voltage till the torch is about 1-1.5mm above material while cutting, use a welding mask to check.
Adjust the cut speed depending on the material being cut and the current set on the plasma source.
Do a lot of test cuts for every material thickness, look under it for dross, less dross = less cleaning.

I think in one of his videos, the Velocity Anti Dive is always active and THC is never active despite being enabled, hence my procedure.
BTW, that procedure should be in the docs, preferably a bit better explained and formatted, and should be mandatory for properly setting up the machine initially. This would save a lot of headache later in daily use, although definitely the Phils Auto Volt thingy does a pretty damn good job given the variety of hardware used and the amount of things that can be wrong and still cutting decently.
And so should be the Cutting fine tuning, again not very important but can be the difference between 3 minutes of cleaning and 30 minutes of cleaning parts. I am sure i wrote about it, but can not find it, and again, this would also need a bit of fines as i am still not good at explaining stuff.
