Thanks Steve. Your posts are always most welcome and never fail to shine an unseen light.
A possible issue with the mcSpindleSetDirectionWait() call is that it gives no indication that it has timed out , so after 10 seconds or so the machine just continues on. Fine if that is what you want, but maybe you'd rather it stopped so you could resolve the cause. The default timeout may behave in the same way - I haven't tested it so I don't know.
