Looks like you are still missing stuff in your ini file for joints. Certainly the PID settings (eg the P)

Leave the spindle stuff there. I took mine out and had problems.
here is what I have in my ini for a typical joint

Warning: Spoiler!


I would concentrate on getting the non plasmac config working without errors, then copy it over. It does not take long.

I have found increasing these settings can get rid of following errors
Code:
# The values below should be 25% larger than MAX_VELOCITY and MAX_ACCELERATION # If using BACKLASH compensation STEPGEN_MAXACCEL should be 100% larger. STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 450 STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 5000

Give this a try.

Cheers, Phill.

Edit: You may need to check the halfile name and machine name...

thank you so much for your help. those errors are now gone but this popped up now.
Code:
twopass: Error in file ./plasmac.hal: Pin 'spindle.0.on' was already linked to signal 'spindle-enable' Shutting down and cleaning up LinuxCNC... hm2_eth: HostMot2 ethernet driver unloaded hm2: unloading Note: Using POSIX realtime LinuxCNC terminated with an error. You can find more information in the log: /home/jtknives/linuxcnc_debug.txt and /home/jtknives/linuxcnc_print.txt as well as in the output of the shell command 'dmesg' and in the terminal jtknives@plasma:~/linuxcnc-plasmac$

Comment out these lines in your machine hal:

line 233:
Code:
net spindle-enable => pid.s.enable

line 244:
Code:
net spindle-enable <= spindle.0.on

Cheers, Phill.
