TRACKINGMODE Tracking Motion
Purpose Set the directional gearing mode of the Tracking function.
Syntax TRACKINGMODE = n
variable = TRACKINGMODE
n n specifies which of the modes to set. Values for n are 0 through
2.
variable Value can be a nonvolatile variable Gn, a volatile variable Vn, or
another system variable.
Remarks Mode 0 is normal gearing.
Mode 1 is when any forward motion of the master results in forward follower motion,
much like a ratchet.
Mode 2 is similar to mode 1 except if the master moves in reverse, then forward again,
the follower will not move until the master returns to the position where it began mov-
ing reverse.

lower motion.
