Torch will not Fire was created by Hippy
I upgraded from Plasmac to QTPlasmaC....All went well pretty much painless. I have a fully functioning QTPlasmaC setup, other then my torch will not fire. Like a dummy i deleted my old Plasmac before I found this out and also i cleaned up some wiring in my control box.
So i dont know if i forgot to include something in my HAL when i built it out for QT or I put my torch on/off wires in the wrong location on the 7i96 while cleaning up my box.
Have attached my HAL to look at.

Wait for 15 seconds.
For some unknown reason QTPlasmaC will do that sometimes.
Afterwards it works as it should.

Unfortunately that did not work.
I know my plasma works as my hand torch fires up. Just dug it out to test.
Is the torch on light supposed to be on in the GUI? I can click it on but by default its off.
So its down to 3 likely causes i think. I screwed up something in my HAL, I screwed up my rewiring or I have a wiring issue coming from my cnc port.
The way my torch on/off is currently connected is ssr.00.out-00 and ssr 00.out-01 pretty sure that's how it was before but not 100% positive.

Just a thought. I take it you have it enabled in the gui because it is disabled by default.

Yep have tried it both ways, same results.
Rapids over touches off raises to piece height, dont fire and returns to max Z

From your hal file the torch on signal is on hm2_7i96.0.ssr.00.out-00.

Have a looked at that pin with halmeter or halshow to see if it switches on when it should.
