There is firmware that supports stepgen index pins

Can you give me an example, how to do it?

I don't have a ready made example, but stepgen index behaviour mimics
encoder index behaviour so has the same hal connections to the index
enable signal

Ok
I will try.

Which firmware of them supports "stepgen index pinsW" and what pin to connect it on the card?

No normal firmware supports this option.
Typically it would be used with an encoder
input card (that has a combined stepgen/encoder index pin)

What type of signal is the index from your hardware?

I have only just this, 7i96s card with 7i96s_d.bin firmware
The signal is a 5v encoder output from a servo drive KA series   (differential ABZ and Z open collector output + a GND, not sure about the 2nd)
I need only the index, just for homing.
