CNC Sewing machine question

Hook is the lower part where needle makes the stitch, i attached a picture.
How can i make the rotary axis stop at specific position when suddenly pause is triggered? Thanks.

We are developing a prototype machine on which three parallel sewing machines will run together on same continuous fabric feed. Currently there is one sewing machine on the prototype, i am trying to solve this problem, after this problem is solved we will attach 2 more sewing machines and i will send a fully operating video, for your opinions.

My own thoughts on how to do this are to have the sewing machine driven by a servo motor. When the CNC program calls for stitching, as in "spindle on" or M03, the
motor runs at some set speed. When the spindle command is turned off, (M05)
then the servo drive is commanded to a lower speed, and when the needle full up
sensor on the sewing machine detects it is there, the motor is stopped. If every
place in the G-code where the spindle is stopped has a short dwell for the needle(s)
to reach full up, then it will be safe to slew to the next part of the embroidery
pattern.

This scheme could be implemented in physical hardware, some simple analog circuits and a FF to trip the servo off when the sensor senses the needle up.

Or, it could all be done with a few HAL components. You couldl also have a
DAC that sets the normal speed and the needle up seek speeds, and use an
enable command to stop each motor at the right time.

I should give more detail of my system, since it is prototype i can make changes.
Attached you can find the config files and sample piece of g code.
We are using servo motors to control 4 axes.
Since needle is defined as an axis it has home sensor, but i could not find a way to pause motor when home sensor is triggered.

Can we use and2 on pause signal and needle home signal for program-pause?

What does this even mean? Yes, LinuxCNC is efficient, it can run thousands of lines of G-code per second
on decent PC hardware, and control closed-loop to the PC servo systems at hundreds of IPM, tens of MPM
speeds.
