250 +The query target position command returns the target virtual position during and after an action which results in a rotation of the servo horn. In the example above, the servo is rotating to a virtual position of 678.3 degrees. Should the servo not have a target position or be in wheel mode, it will respond with the last target position used.

Without any modifications to configuration considered, and a ±90.0 degrees standard range where 1500 microseconds is centered, a PWM signal of 2334 would set the servo to 165.1 degrees.

390 -EM1 (Enable Motion Profile #1) is the default mode of the LSS and is an easy way to control the servo's position with a single (serial) position command. This mode uses a trapezoidal motion profile which takes care of acceleration, constant speed travel and deceleration. Once the actual position is within a certain value of the target, it switches to a holding algorithm. The LSS commands for Angular Acceleration and Deceleration (AA/CAA/AD/CAD) Angular Stiffness (AS/CAS) and Angular holding stiffness (AH/CAH) affect this motion profile. Modifiers like SD/S and T can be used in EM1.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

398 -This command will disable the built-in trapezoidal motion profile. As such, the servo will move at full speed to the target position using the D/MD action commands. Modifiers like SD/S or T cannot be used in EM0 mode. By default the Filter Position Counter, or "FPC" is active in EM0 mode to smooth out its operation. EM0 is suggested for applications where an external controller will be determining all incremental intermediate positions of the servo's motion, effectively replacing a trajectory manager. To prevent having to send position commands continuously to reach the desired position in EM0/FPC active (FPC >= 2), an internal position engine (IPE) repeats the last position command. Note that in EM0 mode, the servo will effectively always be in status: Holding (if using the query status command).

735 -Timed move can be used only as a modifier for a position (P, D, MD) actions. The units are in milliseconds, so a timed move of 2500 milliseconds would cause the servo to rotate from its current position to the desired position in 2.5 seconds. The onboard controller will attempt to ensure that the move is performed entirely at the desired velocity, though differences in torque may cause it to not be exact. This command is in place to ensure backwards compatibility with the SSC-32 / 32U protocol.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
736 -**Note:** If the calculated speed at which a servo must rotate for a timed move is greater than its maximum speed (which depends on voltage and load), then it will move at its maximum speed, and the time of the move may be longer than requested.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
