It wasn't meant to be a success report :) I thought I was doing it wrong because I wasn't using the index mask. I copied the connections from another example configuration... setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.gpio.024.is_output 0 net x_home_switch hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.gpio.024.in => axis.0.home-sw-in net x_home_index_enable axis.0.index-enable => hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.00.index-enable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
