Thank you Jeff. I need to take time to study this. I have started to
look at the encoder.c file and the encoder diagram. I suspect if I can
figure out it works I'll be much further along. Unfortunately, I was
getting into encoders in order to make progress on something else, which
I also need to get up to speed on.

One thing that comes to mind, the index resets the encoder counters only
on homing linear axes and every 360 degrees on rotary axes or just for
threading?
