number of times.

Example for a move from 0 to 20 mm and back.
In forward direction: The first trigger pulse occurs at 10 mm (StartPosFwd), the next
trigger pulse occurs after another 5 mm (PosIntervalFwd), the stage then moves to 20
mm.
In reverse direction: The next trigger occurs when the stage gets to 12 mm.
Note that position triggering can only be used on one TRIG port at a time, as there is
only one set of position trigger parameters.
Triggering Polarity
The polarity of the trigger pulse is specified in the Trig. 1 Polarity and Trig 2 Polarity
parameters as follows:
Active is High - The active state of the trigger port is logic HIGH 5V (trigger input
and output on a rising edge).
Active is Low - The active state of the trigger port is logic LOW 0V (trigger input
and output on a falling edge).
