dont forget you also need a pulse on enc a as well as index for threading ,
unless of course your using a commercial encoder
and change encoder type to 1 , and change the encoder to ttl by the 3
jumpers on the 7i76 for that particular channel . you can tie the same sig
to index and enc a

ok am i correct that Machinekit does Jog while paused ( or whatever
everyone wants to call it ) if thats the case then Linuxcnc for me must go
out in the trash bin ... and i must go and use machinekit , i dont have an
alternative for customers .
it's no good arguing if it's needed or not
i normaly make sure that all low voltage wiring is sheilded and watch for
ground loops and vfd inputs are via filters and Balance transformers ,
ethernet coms are usually problem free so long as you use good cables and
not the cheap Aluminium wire ones as they are using balanced paired cores

so please dev's add to master , and if need be add a ini switch to turn on
if possible , if it's thought to make it
or put simple a big mess rather than a concerted effort on one
my thoughts are that machinekit has gone the 3d printing route and forgot
about real machines doing real work
but with an attempt to bring things up to date like nml etc .

look at the toolchangers we did for the orac and triac.
and the interaction between stages to see that each is completed ,. far far
easier than remap
in fact i hate remap , but i dont know why if i'm honest , it just does not
seem to dig deep enough .
and even the triac and orac changers
why not use the simple M3 M4 M5 codes for start stop ,
is this for 3d printing or pick and place ?
you could use a macro to do switching on and off or running code

as far as i can see your hal file is fine ,
but
the spindle values in your ini file should be along the lines of
[SPINDLE_9]
ENCODER_SCALE = 4000.0
OUTPUT_SCALE = 10.0
#OUTPUT_MIN_LIMIT = -10.0
#OUTPUT_MAX_LIMIT = 10.0
