The Position shows the current angle of the output shaft of the servo in relation to its configured origin (0 degree) angle (including any adjustment to the Origin Offset). It also displays angles over 360 degrees, and it’s important to note this is a calculated position as the internal sensor can only read 0 to 360 degrees.
