8.7.2 - Positional Movement
The second type of movement command is called positional movement. The position is
based on the number of individual steps per revolution (motor pulse counts). This
position is reset when the system performs a motor calibration (homing routine). This
command is entered from the “DC>” prompt in the debug mode. The format is similar to
the motor movement command described above. If a “p” is entered, the system will
respond with the current motor position.
