Hi Chris;
After I corrected my thread order the symptom remained the same.

Additional information observed is; the first home after EMC has been
started the value loaded at the home/limit release point is approximately
the position the axis was at EMC start, as loaded from the
PARAMETER_FILE =. This is far enough to spike the "axis.n.f-error" off
the scale instantly and produce the Joint Following Error.

I am running EMC 2.3.? off the last Live Disk install.
Maybe I could park the system at the limit switches before system shutdown.
Here is hoping there is better solution.

    Thanks
        Don
