--This means the servo is located at 13.2 degrees.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

--(% class="wikigeneratedid" id="H22.QueryTargetPositioninDegrees28QDT29" %)

++This means the servo is located at 13.2 degrees.

++Query Target Position in Degrees (**QDT**)
++Ex: #5QDT<cr> might return *5QDT6783<cr>
++
  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.

--Example: #5MD123&lt;cr&gt;<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
++Example: #5MD123<cr>
++
  The relative move command causes the servo to read its current position and move the specified number of tenths of degrees in the corresponding position. For example if the servo is set to rotate CW (default) and an MD command of 123 is sent to the servo, it will cause the servo to rotate clockwise by 12.3 degrees. Negative commands would cause the servo to rotate in the opposite configured direction.

++Query Wheel Mode in Degrees (**QWD**)
++Ex: #5QWD<cr> might return *5QWD90<cr>
++
  The servo replies with the angular speed in degrees per second. A negative sign would indicate the opposite direction (for factory default a negative value would be counter clockwise).

++====== __(Relative) Move in Degrees (**MD**)__ ======
--The position in PWM pulses was retained in order to be backward compatible with the SSC-32 / 32U protocol. This relates the desired angle with an RC standard PWM signal and is further explained in the SSC-32 and [[SSC-32U manuals>>https://www.robotshop.com/media/files/pdf2/lynxmotion_ssc-32u_usb_user_guide.pdf#page=24]]. 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. Valid values for P are [500, 2500]. Values outside this range are corrected / restricted to end points.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

--Query Position in Pulse (**QP**)<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
++(% class="wikigeneratedid" %)
++====== The relative move in PWM command causes the servo to read its current position and move by the specified number of PWM signal. For example if the servo is set to rotate CW (default) and an M command of 1500 is sent to the servo, it will cause the servo to rotate clockwise by 90 degrees. Negative PWM value would cause the servo to rotate in the opposite configured direction. ======
--Example: #5QP&lt;cr&gt; might return *5QP2334<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
--
--This command queries the current angular position in PWM "units". The user must take into consideration that the response includes any angular range and origin configurations in order to determine the actual angle.
--Valid values for QP are {-500, [500, 2500], -2500}. Values outside the [500, 2500] range are given a negative corresponding end point value to indicate they are out of bounds (note that if the servo is physically located at one of the endpoints, it may return a negative number if it is a fraction of a degree beyond the position).
