DE (Binary 98)
FUNCTION: Stepper Encoder Position
DESCRIPTION:
The DE command defines the encoder position when used with stepper motors.
ARGUMENTS: DE n,n,n,n
or
DEX=n
where
n is a signed integers in the range -2147483647 to 2147483648 decimal
n=?
Returns the position of the auxiliary encoders for the specified axes.
n = ? returns the commanded reference position of the motor (in step pulses) when used with a
stepper motor. Example: DE 0 This will define the TP or encoder position to 0. This will not
effect the DE ? value. (To set the DE value when in stepper mode use the DP command.)
