| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention is directed to a system and method for improved operational feedback from a plasma torch (16) to a plasma-cutting power source (12). A plasma cutter (10) includes a plasma cutting power source (12), a plasma torch (16) in communication with the plasma cutting power source (12), and a serialization circuit (51) disposed within the plasma torch (16) to control transmission of multiple feedback signals from the plasma torch (16) to the plasma cutting power source (12). The serialization circuit (51) receives the multiple feedback signals and places the feedback in a queue, such that the multiple feedback signals are sent from the queue to a processing unit (74) in the power source (12) via a single communications link.</p> |
