Okay, been up and running with the new to me electronics, I upgraded from a older Blade runner with the exterior thc card. I now have the ESP2 Blade runner DTHC2. Computer came with it. I wiped out the old mach install and reinstalled mach from the actual mach website and then up graded on Toms site. It installed 2 short cuts one is Blade runner DTCH2 plasma when opened it says version X.X I set this one up with all motor tuning and have everything including feather touch working correctly (thanks to everyone that helped when I stumbled)
Only problem seems to be is the table display dro is gray and not black, my jobs show up in a white square and only show the actual lines when I run the cursor over it. Is there a easy way to turn the screen back to black so it displays the cutting procedure?
The second short cut says Bladerunner AIO DTHC2 plasma revision 15. this one has a black screen but won't fire the torch. I haven't even looked at why yet cause the other is cutting for me fine and I'm way behind..
Sorry for the Long winded question.
As always thanks in advance..

Re: Gray Table display dro
In MACH Config/toolpath you can define what colors you want any of the objects. If you have a Profile that has what you want just open that menu in that profile and write down the color settingLargemouthlou wrote: Only problem seems to be is the table display dro is gray and not black, my jobs show up in a white square and only show the actual lines when I run the cursor over it.

Re: Gray Table display dro
Thank you Tom and MTW. I should have done a search.. But thank you both for answering I knew it was simple but didn't know where to look.. Jester also had it right in the post that you put up MTW.
Thanks all, have a great weekend..
As an add on, I simply went to my other computer and copied the numbers over to my new mach screen and worked perfect!! Thanks again all..
Cant say enough about all the other help from everyone here and especially Tom, Luke and the crew!!
