I used velocity. Position seems to revs since linuxcnc was started, and increments forever, and TBT I've not even looked at position-interpolated. I turned off the lathe & interface power when I came in last night, so before I can check that I'd need to dress and run out and turn them back on. I only have one eye propped open so far this morning, not enough coffee yet... More hal wiring errors? I don't think I have either of those signals hooked to anything at the moment. Thanks Andy.
