Trying to get my OMC A6 Servos homing

If someone still has an different idea on how i could use the absolute encode advantages but have the switches connected over the IO Modules, i would appreciate some alternatives. 

Try the following:
in hal connect your input pin to PDO 2004 Index 02 or 06 or 0A (pos limit, neg limit, home)
like
net y-limit-ext lcec.0.something.din-2 => lcec.0.X.pos-limit

in ethercat-conf.xml
<pdoEntry idx="2004" subIdx="02" bitLen="16" halPin="pos-limit" halType="u32" />

do not connect anything physically to the servo drives DI inputs.

Thank you, thats definetly worth a try.

It still feels like a misuse of this parameter...
