How to install VNC on LinuxCNC 2.9 with QTplasmac?

I'm just heading for bed. Use halshow to display the ohmicsense pins.
Watch the voltage when contacting the plate. It should go to about 24 volts. Look at the thresholds and make sure the high threshold is <  the contact voltage
Observe in halscope if you really get stuck.

Thanks Rod,
Here is a short video of HALSHOW.  First I shorted the ohmic wires 3 times, watch the volts and encoder.Second I hit the Ohmic Test button 3 times.  Watch the ohmic-enable and ohmicsense.is-probing signals. The Z-axis never moves and the ohmic sensor light never comes on.

I have followed as many config file examples as I can find, I am thinking the ohmic3 component isn't working or I am missing a config somewhere.
Thanks again!

what pin do you have connected to ohmicsense.is_probing?
It needs to be true when probing (from plasmac probe enable).
I see it going true but its not true when ohmicsense.ohmic-volts is 24 volts which is when the probe is touching the plate.

I wish I understood all of the relationships of the signals better, here is what my spaceship.hal has today:

would you be willing to post your full hal and ini configs for me to review? Our machines are very similar.
