Set RS422 Node
When multiple Spirit systems are being used together on an RS-422 serial
communication link, each system must have a unique identification number (node

simply choose from node 1 through 8.
When using an Inova torch height control system with the Spirit, the communication
node feature must be disabled. To disable the communication node, press the Disabled
button.
Set CAN Domain
Make sure the CAN domain is set to 1. All other selections are for future use.
Allow Error Suppression
Press Enable to allow error suppression. Press Disable to stop error suppression.
Arc Off Delay
In some instances, such as when cutting thicker stainless steel materials, it may

received. To program an arc off delay, press the data entry button ( ) and enter
the desired delay time in milliseconds. The delay can be set from 0 to 2000 mS.
