Error code
Transmission data
• External scale FB pulse sum will return the present position of the external scale counter in absolute coordinates from
the starting point. 
• External scale FB pulse sum will be "-" for CW and "+" for CCW.
• External scale deviation becomes "+" when the external scale is positioned at CW direction against position
command, and "–" when it is positioned at CCW direction.
