Z axis

I commented out the Torch on and float switch for now, Program started, homed all joint and machine is alive!!!! Almost anyways. Thanks you for your guys is help!!!!
Will I have to go through terminal to start plasmac every time?

It is the recommended way because you can see error messages on the terminal but you can create a desktop launcher.

Ok, thanks for the help on this part

So for my learning experience I did a dress install of Linuxcnc , from www.linuxcnc.org/testing-stretch-rtpreempt/
Update everything running 2.9 master branch base configuration up and running auto homing set Ran a couple g code looks good. everything This time it took me just a couple hours vs the 2 weeks it did the first time. When I went to do a plasmac configuration nothing happens.
I double click on the “configuration.py” and nothing no pop up to select. I tried the terminal command, “python /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/plasmac/configurator.py and still nothing. I even tried the long way “cd usr, then cd share and so on Unti I get to cd plasmac and I try cd configurator.py and nothing I know it’s in the folder any suggestions

Try adding 2 to python
python2 /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/plasmac/configurator.py
else:
In terminal:
cd /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/plasmac/
ls
see if there is a file by that name, if there is, try:
./configurator.py
or python ./configurator.py
If that also does not work:
sudo chmod 755 configurator.py
then try again.

Yes, the configurator.py file is 1 of several files in the plasmac folder when I type ls.
I will try the suggestion you made tommylight,
On a side note, I figured out some of the homing issues I had especially with the z axis.
When setting up the axis the home search direction was set up the wrong, so for other make sure you pick what’s appropriate for your application.
Follow up question, what’s best for practice when setting up the home inputs . Should one pick “home”, “shared home” ,if share home is picked should you pick “min limit + home” , “both + home”?
