Four integers in the format "%d:%d:%d:%d"    [axisx]:[axisy]:[axisz]:[axisu]

[axisx]  indicates the encoder position for axis X

[axisy]  indicates the encoder position for axis Y

[axisz]  indicates the encoder position for axis Z

[axisu]  indicates the encoder position for axis U


Example 

Read        

EP        * Returns the current encoder counter values of all axes

               Ex. Return value of 1000:0:542:-2000,  indicates 

Axis X encoder = 1000

Axis Y encoder = 0

Axis Z encoder = 542

Axis U encoder = -2000


Notes

Valid encoder counter values are 28-bit numbers between -134,217,728 and +134,217,727
