Float Switch has disabled jogging

I know this was addressed in January but my situation is a bit different.  The disable Jog setting option is disabled so i can't click to override.  The AUTO HOMING works but when we goto manaully move the plasma with either keyboard keys or on screen arrows we get "FLOAT SWITCH HAS DISABLED JOGGING".  Do you have tricks to help us resolve this issue?  Should we replace the float switch?  Thank you 

You need to ensure that the float switch is not active. Is it on all the time?
 

How do i know when the float switch is on?

If you are using PlasmaC or QtPlasmaC then there are indicators on the GUI, the indicator should only be lit when the float switch is activated.
Another option would be to use  halshow  to monitor the HAL pin directly.
 

yes we have QtPlasmaC - i will go check that out and report back - really appreciate your assistance

We found that the FLOAT light was indicating on and found a short in the float switch... it is now fixed - Thank you for you quick response and much needed assistance - have a great day !
