Another plasma component...

Please note that I have removed the attachment from this post as there is an error that could inadvertently turn on the torch while probing...
Working on a solution.

Cheers, Phill.

I have just pushed an update:

Probing should be fixed...

Add a pin named probe-start-height, when probing Z will rapid down at the setup speed and when it gets to this height will move down at probe speed. If this is left at 0 then Z will move down at probe speed.
I have not added a spinbox into any of the sim configs yet...

Next step is to allow multiple ohmic-attempts before falling back to float switch. At the moment it is whatever occurs first.
A bit of feedback on this would be good.
If we set ohmic-max-attempts to 1, does that mean:
1: Try a probe, if ohmic unsuccessful go to probe start height then probe again, accepting either ohmic or float switch
or does it mean:
2: Try a probe, if ohmic unsuccessful keep probing until float switch
I am leaning toward 1, then 0 would behave as per 2 which would be the setting if you had no ohmic probe..

Cheers, Phill.

You kinda lost me. I flowed the how to that was included with the download. But I did not see any plasmac and I don't really know how to compile or change a git. Sorry I feel so out of my league here.

Have a read through this document to get a bit of background on building LinuxCNC.
Have you seen the "quick look" section of the first post in this thread.

Cheers, Phill.

Yeah I read through that entire page thats how i was able to get it installed. but when I go looking for these after i type in linuxcnc thy are not listed
Sample Configurations/sim/axis/plasmac
Sample Configurations/sim/gmoccapy/plasmac
Sample Configurations/sim/qtvcp_screens/plasmac

You need to run LinuxCNC exactly as described in the first post or as described by Rod above

Cheers, Phill.
