Are you loading an estop-latch component?
You would need to scroll about one page lower down the error listing to see the actual problem.

That is becouse the pin 15 is already connected in the thc.hal file.
You will have to change the pins in the thc.hal, the input pins for UP/DOWN/ARCOK and Float Switch.
Currently you have only UP set properly, there should be no lights ON when you start Linuxcnc.
There are already setings for IN or IN-NOT depending on the input signals.

You have to change the inputs in the thc.hal file. Leave e-stop as it was originaly. If you change the hal file name, you will have to edit the ini file to point to the new name.
Edit the moveup, movedown, arcok, floatswitch to fit your BOB.
If you have the arcok led on in the panel, it will not let you jog the machine.

Hello
By modifying the thc.hal file I managed to run the estop button
I have all my lights off
When pressing the limit switch connect to pin 15 the indicator light does not light
When I try to advance the engine it does not move?
Here is my file modify according to my bob

Do not change the file names, or if you do change them, change the appropriate entries in the ini file.
And you have the limit switch ( in this case the probe switch ) wired to pin 13 in hal, not pin 15.

Hi, My plasma on this config works great since 2014 and suddenly something goes wrong.
First cycle of pierc is normal. Z axis goes down. Floating hit floating switch. Seting correct height for torch. Second pierc Z didnt search height of material.
Start torch on travel height. If arc will fail z axis goes down and normal serch for material heigh. Any one know solution ?

You have to add a pause when you have short cuts.
Just add G04 P1 after every M5 in the gcode.
