Motion Complete Trippoint
When used in stepper mode, the MC command will hold up execution of the proceeding commands
until the controller has generated the same number of steps out of the step count register as specified in
the commanded position. The MC trippoint (Motion Complete) is generally more useful than AM
trippoint (After Motion) since the step pulses can be delayed from the commanded position due to
stepper motor smoothing.

Using an Encoder with Stepper Motors
An encoder may be used on a stepper motor to check the actual motor position with the commanded
position. If an encoder is used, it must be connected to the main encoder input.
position. If an encoder is used, it must be connected to the main encoder input.
NOTE: The auxiliary encoder is not available while operating with stepper motors. The position of
the encoder can be interrogated by using the command, TP. The position value can be defined by
using the command, DE.
