Sorry, I missed some mail, though I see it on Sourceforge. I ran into a max mail per IP setting on my mail server so it stopped accepting the list mails. I've adjusted the limit so hopefully that will fix it.
The update on the current state of things: The HOME_OFFSET setting has solved the homing issue. I read the docs on homing a number of times, but it was not clear on the how HOME_OFFSET actually affected things. I still have the spindle issue, no matter what I do I have not been able to get any spindle operation in LinuxCNC. If I don't have the spindle encoder configured I am able to control it in the PnCConf open loop test and everything works fine except for the issue with dir dropping before the decel is complete. If I try to configure the spindle encoder I am unable to get spindle operation in the PnCConf open loop test either. The spindle encoder is connected and operational and I have seen pulses on both A and Index in Halscope. The spindle VFD is a Hitachi NES1-015SB. It responds fine from everything I can see, and indeed too well since it honors the change in direction even when run/stop has dropped and it's in decel. It slams the spindle into reverse just fine, except that is not something I want it to do when it's not in run state. I'll look through the docs again to see if there are any settings to prevent this, but I don't recall seeing anything like that when I looked through the manual originally for the initial VFD programming.
