YOu need to setup the pin for output #1 most are pin 9 (from robert's info you may need to use pin 14 not 9) when you set it up you can hit the F5 key when on the program page if correct it will fire the torch but hit it again to turn off fast. The first page below sets it so M3 will fire the torch from G-code and m5 for off.
