Nothing with floating point can go in the base thread. This needs to go in the servo thread. (the velocity pin will only change in the servo thread anyway).
Make sure you add the "near" function earlier than the stepgen functions, so that the drive turns back on before the pulses start.
addf near.0 base-thread
(sice i need this to be fast i would add it to the base thread...)

oh ok i get it. so the actual movement is calculated in the servo thread anyway. so the pin's change should be as fast as the first step.o
in about 2-3 hours i will be at home and try it out. i will let you know.
thanks four your great help for now.

The near works for me in a similar set up.
The man page Andy pointed to has the info on setting it up.
You can set one input to 0 and use that to compare to the hal pin.
