I may have accidentally lied. So I have a picture I converted into g-code, I plugged that in to see if it all worked. My z axis isn’t moving though. It didn’t move at all. I was expecting a touch off as is suppose to happen with a floating head but nothing. I may just have converted the g code wrong. All the Inkscape videos are weird

You need a spindle o on command to start the probe sequence. PlasmaC remove all Z commands as it handle all the Z axis height.
Open one of the example files made for Plasmac, they are installed with LinuxCNC.

When you go to open a file they should be in a subdirectory named plasmac.
Their real location is /usr/share/linuxcnc/ncfiles/plasmac/

Hello, I'm back again with some more issues. we got the configuration working and everything,last time. and i finally got the design program all worked out and the g-code worked out. So naturally its testing time. Today was going to be the firs cut but everything would go right until the torch had to fire. Which it wouldnt do, so i thought about it a bit and realized i put the torch fire on the wrong output when setting up plsamc. so i went back to reconfigure it, well i typed it wrong and now it wont let me reconfigure. im getting these error messages
When opening Linuxcnc:
(i was going to copy and paste it here but for some reason i cant copy or paste erro messages from linux so there are picture linked) imgur.com/a/gpia5al
When i try to edit the plasmac again:
