Thanks!
You think there would be a problem pig-tailing on the OZ+ going into my 7i89 and into the 7i75 so they are both getting the same signal? or should i pull my OZ+ completely off the encoder block on the 7i89 for now?

Sharing will probably not work as the 7I89s differential termination
will probably reduce the swing enough to not work with the 7I75 inputs
but you could jumper the index on the 7I89 for single ended.
BTW I have got firmware now supporting shared muxed encoder/stepgen
index signals. Its a bit limited because the stepgen instance must match the
encoder instance (that is if you have a shared index on muxed encoders 3,4
they will be hardwired to stepgens 3,4 indexes)

Awesome.. that is much less wiring hackery than the other approach

Sorry for resurrecting this thread but a lot happend in life between when I stopped working on this and now.. Anyways, I am finally getting this machine back up and running ( change in jobs, moves, home renos, life, life moth balled this project for 2 years :-O)
Anyways, I did some searching and I am not sure clear instructions on how to use the stepgenindex to use index's for homing while still treating a the axis as open loop?
I imagine it would start with 2.9 and updating the VHD for the pinnouts in the firmware... Here is my current VHD for my 7i76e + 7i89 + generic Bob combo looks like
I am not sure if these updates got pushed into 2.8.3 or 2.8.4 and my github fu couldn't chase down the change set from back then to see if it is still in master or 2.9 or (again possible) pushed into 2.8.3 or .4..
Again sorry for resurrecting this, I am finally back in a place where I can bring this machine back to life..

Replied by jhandel on topic Step/Dir servos + Encoders = follow errors... and so much pain.....
I read the thread: forum.linuxcnc.org/24-hal-components/482...rmware-update#264600
And I think I still have some questions.. especially on if/what I should change about my VHD (if anything) to make it compatible.
I downloaded the firmware in the file (which wouldn't work on my card but who's vhd does give me some hints.. but it looks like I don't have to change anything?
Just need to compile a latest and greatest firmware with my VHD and then make the HAL changes (while on 2.9).
I kind of thought my VHD would have to change but I am not seeing it if it does need to change.
