Ok Peter, so that is resetting my original understanding. But I have been unable to get the index pulse, which is clearly present in halscope to trigger the position reset.

The way index works on LinuxCNC with quadrature encoders is that when LinuxCNC (or some hal component)
wants a encoder reset at the next index occurrence, it sets the index-enable pin. This arms the encoder counter
hardware so at the next index, two things happen, the encoder position is reset to 0, and the index enable pin
is set false, so LinuxCNC or the controlling hal component knows that the index has been detected (and position zeroed)
