Been using Automation Direct Components,including DirectSoft 5 Programming as well as CTRIO Workbench.
I have a DL06 PLC,HO-CTRIO Counter Module,STP-DRV-4035 Stepper Driver,TRDSH 100BD Encoder, and a Stepper I already had.
I have a program that uses Dynamic Positioning.
I can enter a Position and it moves both positive as well as negative depending on Parameter 3.
Since the encoder is not used with the CTRLDPR I Box, I am trying to compare the encoder position with the actual position.
I know the encoder is V2000 but I can't find what variable is the Current Position.
Does anyone know what variable stores the Current Position?

Thank You,
MikeP
