I added tapered threading to G76 to my local 2.7.6 branch. I had 
concerns that the transitions between up to three synchronized path 
sections might not be handled well. My tests with 1/8 NPT and .25-20 
straight threads with end taper worked well, but these probably would 
tolerate some variation. The end tapers usually don't mate with 
anything. I wanted to see what HALscope might show at these path 
transitions, but I didn't see any velocity HALpins, off hand, on my Pico 
servo setup, and I haven't taken the time to go any further on this. I 
would like to, maybe in the coming week. I can look at your issue while 
I'm at it.

(BTW, I had to repair this encoder. The local voltage regulator was 
going into thermal shutdown, but I could not find excess current going 
into the near or far end of the cable. It turned out that I had old 
tantalum capacitors on the voltage regulator input and output that were 
going bad. I replaced the regulator with a high current version and 
smoked a tantalum, therefore indicating the problem. Not the most 
elegant trouble shooting, but finally found the problem.)
