14.1.3. Position Periodicity
Depending on the stepping mode the position can range from –4096 to +4095 in half-step to –32768 to +32767 in 1/16th micro-stepping
mode. One can project all these positions lying on a circle. When executing the command SetPosition, the position controller will
set the movement direction in such a way that the traveled distance is at a minimum.
Figure 9 illustrates that the moving direction going from ActPos = +30000 to TagPos = –30000 is clockwise.
If a counter clockwise motion is required in this example, several consecutive SetPosition commands can be used. For larger
movements, one could also use the command RunVelocity.

14.1.4. Hardwired Address HW
In Figure 10 a simplified schematic diagram is shown of the HW comparator circuit.
The HW pin is sensed via two switches STOP and SBOT. The DriveHS and DriveLS control lines are alternatively closing STOP and SBOT ,
connecting HW pin with a current to resistor converter. Closing STOP (DriveHS = 1) will sense a current to GND. In that case the top IÆ
R converter output is low, via the closed passing switch SPASS_T this signal is fed to the “R” comparator which output HW_Cmp is high.
Closing bottom switch SBOT (DriveLS = 1) will sense a current to VBAT. The corresponding IÆ R converter output is low and via SPASS_B
fed to the comparator. The output HW_Cmp will be high.
