Do you have a check box that says pause between cuts marked? This would be in the cut settings, and would make a cut, and move to the next pierce and wait for you to press go again before cutting.

Some of the import plasma systems will not fire while the post flow cooling air is flowing, so you may have to wait until that times out....or if the post flow is adjustable you may be able to shorten the time.....it will also shorten the consumable parts life.
