HELP In the process of purchasing a Machitech plasma table. Trying to decide what software to control the machine with, so far i've only heard ProNest. I am familiar in programming CNC lathes and mills with Mastercam but im wondering if i can do the same for a plasma table. Thanks

I need a bit of a help editing a X5 post mpfan.pst for 2-axis plasma machine: the goal is having M73, M75, G4 (plasma on with delay) before feed movement and M74, M76, G4 (plasma off with delay) before every rapid movement and before M02. I managed to edit the post to almost desired result, except that I get M73, M75, G4 before many feed movement lines even that this funcions are still active from previous lines. I need to enter this functions to NC only the first time the feed movement (linear or circular) was engaged, then again if a rapid movement (G0) was used. Below I pasted a current NC output to give you a better understanding of my problem (unwanted code is stiked through): N100 G90 N110 G92 X0. Y0.
