I agree, I feel like that’s a fairly safe assumption, although I acknowledge that it is possible the drives might run away. I figure the best way to handle drive faults is to trigger an e-stop (via HAL) so that all drives and the spindle halt motion. Then you could one-shot the fault clear lines on the drives when you power up the machine. This would handle the most common faults (i.e. I crashed my machine into the side of my vise/table/etc) and avoid trying to slot your table or vise with a trashed cutter. While the following error would also trigger the machine to stop, it’s yet another way to ensure that things aren’t made worse. And a one-shot to clear the faults would avoid the need to power cycle, rehome, etc.
