Do you have a floating head for your plasma?
I talked to a friend and he said the G28.1 was nothing but a PITA to him and he is using V062.
His head floats so before each new cut, the torch is touched off using a G31 which takes care of variations of where the top of the plate and sets
the proper height before turning it on, depending on defined material thickness being cut. Hopefully he will send me the M3 macro that he is using.
You can tweak it to suite your machine.
Plasma dumb but till then.......
