1. Page 82: I would hope this is no longer true (the bitfiles were fixed 
sometime in 2005....)

Note!: This is the intended pinout of P3. Unfortunately, in the current FPGA 
configuration dis-tributed with EMC2 10 , the secondary encoders, enc-04, 
enc-05, enc-06, and enc-07 are wrongly configured. The input pins for enc-04 
and enc-05 partly overlap, as do the pins for enc-06 and enc-07. Thus it is 
possible to use enc-04 and enc-06 simultaneously, but using enc-04 and enc-05 
is not possible since counts on enc-04 will make the count on enc-05 jump by 
+/- 1. If you are using pins in-00 to in-11 as general purpose inputs you are 
not affected by this bug.


2. Page 83: This does not make sense looking at the hardware:

**The status LEDs will monitor one motion channel set by the 
**m5i20.<board>.led-view parameter. A call to m5i20.<board>.misc-update is 
**required to update the LEDs.




The LEDS are driven by hardware, not I/O bits, you can select the channel to 
view, presumably with m5i20.<board>.led-view but there is no need to update 
the LEDs once the channel is chosen.

It may be that I am misreading this and m5i20.<board>.misc-update is just used 
to use the m5i20.<board>.led-view parameter to set the channel. If that is the 
case it might be better to say

"A call to m5i20.<board>.misc-update is required to update the LED view 
channel."
