- In this video, I show a CNC electronics system I needed to complete for a customer. He has a Proma THC that he needed to work and he was trying to find a CNC controller solution. Here is my demonstration of this system and I show a little bit of information for the configuration.
If you would like me to work on your system, click the link to our contact us page, call us and leave a voicemail with a detailed description:

Thank you all so much for watching this video. If you need help with CNC electronics, check the description for helpful links. I will be back with an ARM tutorial very soon.
This is exactly what I need. I will have to replace my interface card with a pokeys57 as the interface card I have doesn’t support THC for my plasma
Excellent! Good luck with your project!
I'm glad to see you doing more videos on the Pokeys. I bought it a while back and there was more videos needed then , Great work and I hope you will do more. Perhaps with mach4.
Yes, I will have many more videos coming for Mach4 and pokeys57CNC.
Love the content!
It would be really cool to have this as an official upgrade to your new greenBULL machines!
That would be cool, but it is actually a pretty easy modification to the Fab Pro machines that I have on the website. The all aluminum frame machine is better suited for plasma. It would be cool to have spindle and plasma on the same machine too... hmm...
i used c11g board, nice job
Thanks!
Very nice video. Question: it should be possible to use the internal ADC of Pokeys57CNC (pin42). I have an external HAL-sensor for reading the Plasma Voltage. Is there an example how to set it up? Then no ecternal THC controller is needed.
Thanks Herman
Hi there just curious as to why you didn't go with the pokeys thc was really hoping one day you did a video using pokeys thc as I've really struggled with it. It's seems to jolt all the axis when it's meant to move the z axis. Really do appreciate your videos so much
I haven't had the opportunity to do one for a customer yet. I sell them, but the customers don't request the wiring or system built for them.
Please do a video explaining the Proma THC settings. Thanks
I don't have that system as it is in the customer's shop. When I get another Proma THC system to work on, I will definitely do this.
Hello I bought a table I have been using it a year . It’s proma . I have fault I can’t get it to connect to the machine . I tried holding shift and pressing connect but it won’t connect . But when I bring in a part and press play it works on the screen . But the table dose nothing . Any ideas please
What controller are you using?
Nice job brother … do you add a Grounding pass-bar to Avoid emi ? And if so can you show us … Thank you very much brother.
I do add a ground bar at on some builds. I will show tis in a future build. Thanks.
Are you using double sided tape to secure HV terminal block ? Is this a normal industry practice or something you hacked together ? I'm no expert in panel building but looking at experts working in the filed wouldn't it be easier to mount everything on a single gear tray outside the box and then just place it in once all the wiring is done ?
Yes, this stuff is crazy strong. The customer actually used this before and I had a very difficult time getting the components out. Now, the components can be easily unscrewed and removed if needed. There was no need to ground everything since each component has a connection to earth ground and is isolated.
Thanks for your vidéos
Doese the proma 150 works with the pokeys57cnc and ethernet connection ?
I haven't tried, but I don't see why not.
@@PatrickHoodDaniel it doesen't work for me !
@@Joud_algr The ethernet connection should have little to do with the unrelated connection to pins 8, 11, and 12 on the controller. Did you happen to try the USB connection and find that it works, switch to the ethernet, and fail?
@@PatrickHoodDaniel yes it work fine with usb but doesen't with the ethernet, because the thc in the pokeys57cnc is a kind of key mapping with mach3, but it works only in the usb mode .
I wish there was a way to get usb cnc (red board ) or some other simple usb board to operate with THC up and down inputs. THC units that do direction and steps to the stepper drive are making me loose my hair. I guess I will get a 57CNC AND TRY AGAIN.
hello my friend i need help can you help me
