I wanted to follow up with this thread to say this solved the problem. Maybe a suggestion to add a bullet point in the manual about how this API VI will SET POINT your count to "0" when called. Everything works great.

Talon SRX on CAN Bus with closed-loop position is amazing so far. Hopefully they will be robust for the weeks to come. Thank you Omar and Cross the Road Electronics.
