Pin input to fire torch

[stick]

I cannot figure out how to get my plasma torch to fire. The diagnostics show that it is calling for it to fire but It does not. Where in the software do I assign the pin. Im using UCCNC and Gecko G540
Thanks

You have to use the spindle M3 relay and the spindle M3 command or the spindle CW on button on the screen.

I do not know exactly how to do that . I am using a plasma screenset and I do not see those options. I have been able to designate the pins on the Gecko for the probing and limit switches but I cannot seem to find the pin assignment option for the arc to fire, I have it wired to the 5th pin (17). On a sidenote I am using the post processor from jcolden and it seems to run through the program okay except for the 1st plunge is extremely slow.
Thanks for your help

You can assign the torch fire to any of the outputs, because in the UCCNC you can assign output functions to any output pins and any input functions to any input pins.
You have to configure the M3 relay in the spindle settings in the configuration and then use the M3 macro to fire the torch.

Fired right up and cut the part perfect. Thanks cncdrive for the help. It seems like every program is a little different with different names for processes. I'm learning SLOWLY.
