The controller responds with ............................................ *15000
If a value entered is out of range *E will be reported and the current value will
not be altered.
Distance reports the current direction as influenced by the H command in MI
(Mode Incremental) only. For example:
1MI ;mode incremental
1D4000 ;set distance to 4000 steps
1D ;report distance
*4000 ;value reported
1H- ;change direction
1D ;report distance
*-4000 ;value reported
