steptest.N.epsilon float rw (default: .001)
       steptest.N.elapsed float r
              Current value of the internal timer

steptest.N.jog-minus bit in
              Drive TRUE to jog the axis in its minus direction

       steptest.N.jog-plus bit in
              Drive TRUE to jog the axis in its positive direction

       steptest.N.run bit in
              Drive TRUE to run the axis near its current position_fb with a trapezoidal velocity profile

       steptest.N.maxvel float in
              Maximum velocity

       steptest.N.maxaccel float in
              Permitted Acceleration

       steptest.N.amplitude float in
              Approximate amplitude of positions to command during 'run'

       steptest.N.dir s32 in
              Direction from central point to test: 0 = both, 1 = positive, 2 = negative

       steptest.N.position-cmd float out
       steptest.N.position-fb float in
       steptest.N.running bit out
       steptest.N.run-target float out
       steptest.N.run-start float out
       steptest.N.run-low float out
       steptest.N.run-high float out
       steptest.N.pause s32 in (default: 0)
              pause time for each end of run in seconds
