Is the stepgen set up in velocity mode or position mode?

It should be set up in position mode, with carousel.0.counts-target as
the position. And probably with a counts-scale of 1, if you have
position feedback.

The component has grown so complicated that it probably needs a
special docs section, in addition to the manpage.
(Ironically I have never had a toolchanger, so my only experience is
second-hand other than the three toochangers I have worked on at
LinuxCNC fests)
