Stuart,

The config files should work fine.  You need to put the connections to 
AXIS in a separate hal file, and load that file with a line in the ini 
file as follows:
[HAL]
POSTGUI_HALFILE = my_hal_file.hal

It needs to be done this way because the display program isn't loaded 
until after the commands in the HAL section of the ini file are 
executed.  The catch-22 is that the pins you're trying to connect don't 
exist until AXIS is loaded.  This is the exact situation the 
POSTGUI_HALFILE key was added.
