Configuring a Floating Head

I believe so. i have my machine all set up, configured, and calibrated except for the floating head. when i fist tried to get plasmac it suggested i make sure everything as set up and ready. so i did everything else first.

Hey, well i was being dumb for a while there. when i tried to follow the guide for plasmac i typed this into the terminal

$ python /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/plasmac/configurator.py

which i accidentally included the extra $

once i did this: python /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/plasmac/configurator.py

i get the menu for plasmac. so i guess i already have it

Thank you. I would suggest just removing the $ sign. but i should have noticed that sooner

question. im suing a 7i96 board with proma 150 thc

how do i write the hal pins? and mode 2 correct? i cant seem to find the answer

Ok so i got it all filled out and set up for my machine then i saved the plasmac. it said it saved and should be able to find in the ini file or config files. but nothing changed i dont think. i normally see a panel that show plasmacs status, but i dont have that. here are my ini files. not sure if youll need anything else

Yeah when I do that it just opens up the software as it’s always look. Like I said I had my machine all configured before doing thins. So it just looks the same. I thought it was suppose to add stuff
