HelloI have a plasma cutter runing on mesa 7i76e / thcad10 / linuxcnc 2.8.My Problem:As you can see on the attached picture (left cut) it starts really good but after about 100mm the THC starts to move up and down the Z Axis. The move distance of the Z Axis gets more and more up to 10mm at the end. Is there an another setting as in the Config Penel Arc - Height Per Volt? (currently set to 0.05mm)So I really don't know how to fix this and which settings could be responsible for this behaveHope that you know the reason for that and I would really appreciate a hint how to fix that.Thanks in advance for you replay.The settings:Config Panel THCDelay:1Threshold(V):1PID P GAIN(Speed):10VAD Threshold(%):90Void Sense Override(%):100PID I Gain: 0PID D Gain:0Run Panel THCAutoUse Auto Volts: (ticked)Velovity Anti Sive Enable (VAD): (ticked)Void Sense Enable: (ticked)

Height Per Volt?
Leave at default 0.1 or whatever the default is, i never had to change that.
VAD at 65% or 70% should be fine, 90% is to much
THC delay i usually have at 0.1-0.2, only for slow cutting speeds use more if needed
And disable "use auto volts" until you get the machine working properly.
From your pictures, i would venture a guess at Z axis acceleration being way to low, or scaling being way off from reality.
If all of the above is set and verified to be OK, then set the P value to 8 or 7 or even lower, but if you end up any lower than 5, something is terribly wrong.
