Peter, this is the root cause in the change of behavior between <=2.6 and
2.7 w/ the 5i25+7i77 that a couple of us have been having (was discussed
here about a week ago)?  I have noticed an occasional warning in the prior
version I was running (just at startup iirc.)  I need to put some more
noise filters in, but my error is from the motor contactors pulling in when
I hit enable.  The original dc servo drives have big contactors that
disconnect the motor from the drive and put a braking resistor across it
when you disable them (or hit a limit switch, etc.)  Hitting the enable
(F2) causes those 3 big guys to pull in and reconnect the drives to the
motors.  That causes the sserial glitch and trips the contactors right back
off. I can't get past that step.  I haven't had time this week to play w/
the inc/dec parameters like Andy Pugh suggested.

Best,
Stephen
