|"Depending on firmware, DIR will be controlled by the sign of the PWM rather than a GPIO bit"
even if the spindle is turning fwd or rev the DIR pin does not change, also I don´t have this pin in halshow. ( pwmgen.00.output-type 1)
|"What is reversed about the Optocoupler outputs?"
because of that?: setp hm2_5i24.0.gpio.016.invert_output 1

OK they are not reversed but rather active low at the FPGA interface
(almost all mesa FPGA cards use active low since the outputs default to high at startup)
The DIR pin will only change if you set a negative PWM value
(This is probably not happening with your current setup)

Allright, now I´ve changed the pwmgen value to minus for rev. So I got the DIR pin awake.
Here my final hal for all who find it use full:

Probably what should happen is that the firmware is changed so the the DIR pin is just GPIO so its more flexible (easier to implement FWD/REV for example). I've done this on newer firmware but have not updated all the firmware files
