108		-The ability to store a "virtual angular position" is a feature which allows for rotation beyond 360 degrees, permitting multiple rotations of the output horn, moving the center position and more. The "absolute position" would be the angle of the output shaft with respect to a 360.0 degree circle and can be obtained by taking the modulus (with respect to 360 degrees) of the value. For example if the virtual position is reported as 15335 (or 1533.5 degrees), taking the modulus would give 93.5 degrees (3600 * 4 + 935 = 15335) as the absolute position (assuming no origin offset).<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

126		-If the servo loses power or is power cycled, it also loses the virtual position associated with that session. For example, if the virtual position was 480.0 degrees before power is cycled, upon power up the servo's position will be read as +120.0 degrees from zero (assuming center position has not been modified). The virtual position range at power-up is [-180.0°, 180.0°].
