I observed something like a 'direction bit flip' when using the OMS motor card in JOG mode. The motor starts moving and then at full speed (!!!) reverts the direction. The limit switch it is now heading to is ignored, probably because it is believing to move in the opposite direction. Let me add, that the motor setup is a simple 0-360 deg rotation with 2 limit switches. One of the switches is used to set the motor counter to a certain value (motor initialization), so the motor counter never runs out of certain values between its limit switches.

Anybody observed similar behaviour, is the JOG mode somehow deprecated?
