point in the CCW direction, turns counter is decremented and Rz flips from
180.0001 to -179.9999 .
The range of turns counter is limited to +/-127 but the actual max number of
turns is geometry dependent. The 3 Turns Counters are elements of a single array
attribute of the target coordinate system which contain J1, J4 or J6 axes turns
counters.

• If either the work frame or the tool frame offset on Rz is not 0, turns counters still increment when J6 crosses the 180
point, but Rz is flipped when J6 crosses the (180
