Success!
Thank you all for your homing support.
The main problem was solved with HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = True. After this I could start to config homing as I wanted it, and now it kind of works. I need to tweak speed/accel a bit.

Is there a concept for trying out a suitable acceleration for the machine? Max speed is in the machine spec, but acceleration needs to be tested. Do I need to tweak the ini file and restart LNCNC each time?

if it is posible for you please get the code you ended up here
not the intirer ini only the section like i did it above AXIS/Joint configuration of all involves XYZA

Check the "calibration" form the "machine" menu, it should have everything that can be edited/tuned without restarting LinuxCNC.

The maths behind calculating acceleration is complex so trial and error is the go. There is a component called sim_pin which you can install from your INI file that opens up a little window that allows you to edit ini file settings on the fly. Now I know of it I would use that when setting up a new machine. When you start to loose steps, back off about 15-20%

Thank you @rodw, I'll try sim-pin. I tried the calibration tool, but I didn't have the patience to look up the math.

Next question for this super-supportive forum:
Where can I find the mapping between the actual pins on the 7i96 and the gpoi_nn pins in HAL? More specifically I need to know which gpio-pin is related to out01 and out02 on the board.
EDIT:
Found the pins.
hm2_7i96_0.ssr.00.out-00
hm2_7i96_0.ssr.00.out-01
It would be great if someone could link me to a document with the pin naming anyway

7i96 Configuration Tool has a spindle tab. I'm using firmware 4+1, so the spindle PWM should be at hm2_7i96.0.pwmgen.00.value.
This pin does not get connected by the config tool. I can set it manually to turn the spindle. To what signal should I connect the PWM?
Also, how do I know what spindle frequency to set in the config? Default seems to be 20000, which didn't work. 5000 works.
