you would probably consider one axis homed when both the home switch
is on AND you get an index signal from the encoder.
But you need to tell EMC when any axis is at home, so i guess the
solution would be:
AND together the home switch and encoder index for each axis.
OR together the results and wire the result to the EMC home input.

EMC users: can you tell me how EMC does "homing" ? I would guess this
has to be done one axis at a time ?
