You want to ground out the encoder A and B signals so the electrical noise doesn't cause the apparent position to creep. You'd still have to home the A axis. I have a vestigial A axis on my Bridgeport setup and have to home it or I get the "can't do MDI when not homed" messages. Some day I'll put a motor in my dividing head......
If you have two configs, then you have to make sure they stay in sync with any mods, updates, etc. you apply to one of them.
