No, I believe not.  This happened probably before the LinuxCNC PID loop 
was even
turned on.  It was purely the G320 coming active and trying to null out 
a one-count
offset from power on.  The encoder was presumably not providing motion 
detection
to the PC or the Gecko, and so LinuxCNC had no reason to have a non-zero PID
output even if F2 had been pressed and it was in "machine on".

Yes, that's true.
