Heres what I said in my last email: ##Probably closer to this: ## ##net Xindex-enable hm2_5i23.0.index-enable.00 <=> axis.0.index-enable ## ##( the GPIO access is only appropriate if you need HAL to read the actual ##index input pin, this is unlikely) This is the same thing that C Radek suggested (the <=> is just for readability) > Donnie Peter Wallace Mesa Electronics (\__/) (='.'=) This is Bunny.
