Hello guys, hope you're doing well

I'm trying to set up the homing sequence on this lathe with Mesa 7i95
driving servo motors as steppers.

I have already linked the index enable pin of the stepgen to the index
enable pin of the encoder like this:

net z-index      <=> hm2_7i95.0.stepgen.01.index-enable
net z-index      <=> hm2_7i95.0.encoder.04.index-enable

The problem is, when the homing sequence starts, the joint keeps forever in
the latching stage waiting for the index and this doesn't happen. It's like
the index enable is never changing to TRUE. I assume the homing sequence
does this automatically?

If I try to force it, it makes no difference, the joint keeps moving in the
latching velocity.

If I force it while jogging I can see how the index pulse is triggering the
index pin to false again so it's working.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
