...or maybe there is a way of configuring devices that i don't know of? The manual does not seem to mention ANY configuration apart from this PDO assignment...

I think I will have to rethread it. It would be my first time.   

For absolutely no reason at all, I decided to make it fancy. Now I can choose the orientation of the center of the switch sweep, like noon, 3, 6 or 9 o'clock.

If I were to do this again, I would probably start measurements like a unit circle, with all angular measurements a positive value from the x-axis, CCW. Live and learn.

In addition to info from spumco.

Commercial suppliers of 4th axis usualyl differenciate between positioner (brake opens, thing rotates, brake closes)
Movable axis which allow light milling up to heavy milling. (workpiece weigth torqure)
Movable axis that are even fast enough to do turning operations. (sometimes even with direct drive)

If a positioner is "good enough" it makes things a lot easier.

Ok I pushed some work on this.
