Cool - that clears up a lot. Now how can I rotate the Axis display and keys
to match how I stand next to the machine?

I am working on a lathe right now. Here is my .ini
did you continue after you disabled?

yes, I read http://dirac.org/linux/gdb/ - it was helpful
if that is supposed to work then I probably did something prior to
continue that 'helped' it to not work.
I will try it again
thanks

Looks like I figured out the pins of index, sure would not have thought it was

Now that seams to be working after it appears that it found the index It try's

After finishing homing, it will go at max_vel towards the home point.
This can be changed int he upcoming emc2 version, but the idea is that once
you know exactly where you are, you can rapid as it's safe.

Hi,
This is my first post to the list.
I want to cnc something. I have not decided if it is going to be a
lathe or mill though I'm leaning toward the mill. Likely a X3 type of
machine. I don't think I want to CNC my bridgeport or clausing
lathe.
Years ago I used some Galil DMC720 controls

If I'm not totally off track, I understand EMC can take encoder

used in servo apps?
Yes, emc2 can take a feedback signal (from an encoder on the motor

Yes,
Is your Y axis out of square with your X or is it something different?
If you need compensation for an axis because you the thread pitch is off you
can create one

The disadvantage of the Gecko drives is that you don't get true feedback
from the motors. While the drives are enabled, they will track the
motors but if you hit estop or power down the drives they will forget
where they are. In my opinion this defeats some of the advantages of
using servos.

So How is the index pulse to be sent to EMC?
I suggest you read the fine manual. It's really quite good; among many
other things it tells you what you need to know to get homing working.
If you're running emc2 2.2, see section 6.3 of the EMC2 Integrator's
Manual

This is the correct setup for using the index pulse on encoder 0 to
home axis 0 (X). Well you need a net in front but I'm sure you
have that.

Does this make sense?
You saying that it should look like this?

Probably closer to this:
