"the stepper motors seemed to (obviously) be given the wrong signal at the time of the error" - Nothing obvious about it. If the DROs indicate the correct position, but the tool is not where the DROs say it should be, you have almost certainly lost steps. One more time, cut the velocity *and* acceleration in *half*, and see if the problem goes away. What you are seeing is typical of a machine that is being commanded beyond it's capabilities.
