Your tool error problem may be unrelated to the encoder issue. I'd start by examining the clamping mechanism and related safety switches that tell the control that the tool is properly locked in position.

Found the main issue. The terminal block in wich the turret signals were connected is broken. Some of them were making contact. I isolate the terminals and now the no indexing problem is solved. The only problem I have left to solve is why with some tools (like tool 8 for example) even if the indexing and clamping is done I get the tool error. In any case, the plan of retrofitting the lathe to LinuxCNC is still going because I know this control will fail eventually.
