As I mentioned to Jon when I saw him at NAMES, I am almost 100% sure that Mr. Wallace and Mr. Harris are NOT dealing with the same problem. Trying to find similarities between the two sets of symptoms will just send you down the rabbit hole. I strongly suggest that you completely ignore everything about the Harris problem. I'm almost sure that Kirk's problem is the "can't accelerate instantly" problem that I tried to explain a couple days ago with my relay race metaphor. I'd suggest reducing the spindle speed while keeping everything else the same, and see what happens. The Harris problem is almost certainly a failure of either the PPMC hardware, or the associated driver. I think it is reporting that it got an index pulse, but not clearing the count, possibly due to an obscure race condition. The ONLY way to make any progress on that front is for Mr. Harris to get a halscope trace - that will be the smoking gun that tells us what to do next.
