Seams on the day I download and printed the manuals from this page http://www.linuxcnc.org/content/view/5/5/lang,en/ the Users and Integrators manual it link me to the Dec. 4 version of v2.3 on the integrators manual and v2.2 on the user manual. I did not catch the manual were different version till this morning. I just blew it off as the price you pay for free software poor docs.I don't redownload the manuals ever time I need to look at them I have a slow connection. You and Peter say this is wrong > net Xindex-enable hm2_5i23.0.encoder.00.index-enable axis.0.index-enable and that I should use >net Xindex-enable axis.0.index??????? <=>hm2_5i23.0.gpio.P2.005.in but you can not tell me what axis.0.index??????? should be or why it errors out Now Chris Radek said >This is the correct setup for using the index pulse on encoder 0 to >home axis 0 (X). Well you need a "net" in front but I'm sure you >have that. >If you also have a home switch, it will be a gpio.NNN.in or in_not >and you hook this to axis.0.home-sw-in. >That's the entire setup you need for switch+index homing.
