Hey andy.

 I was just having a play and I can actually just sense the input-index pin
directly.  With
M66 P0 L2 10
I rotate spindle at 5rpm and wait until sensor changes state

Then stop.


In my case this is a proxy switch.  Not a encoder so I don't have to worry
about missing it.

Anyway I tried that and it's orientating fine at the moment.

And very simple compared to m19 stuff.

I'll finish it tomorrow and might make a video to show you guys.
