This is really strange and I have no idea how to resolve it.
As soon as Plasmac probes, it goes straight to max Z height and then generates this error:
Tried the Plasmac metric wrench and behaviour is unchanged.
I can't see any reason why in the settings. Bottom of travel is about 12mm below the material height so the probe and safe heights are valid. I am at a bit of a loss with this.
I have not changed anything and have done an upgrade in the last few days to no avail. Currently on V 1.221.156. It just happened one day when I started it. But I am unable to cut anything.

Simply put it means that the probe is high enough that the torch won’t be able to move to pierce height without violating the soft limit.
Since it says it was found during ohmic testing, have you tried it without ohmic checked? When I had THCAD ohmic, this was something I encountered. It could be a false trip, perhaps there’s some dross on the tip giving a path through the electrode, etc.
EDIT: forgot about the thing Phill said, I’d check his suggestion first
