Where: [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

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
