3.6.6 GAP (Get Axis Parameter)
Most motion / driver related parameters of the TMCM-3212 can be adjusted using e.g. the SAP command.
With the GAP parameter they can be read out. In standalone mode the requested value is also transferred
to the accumulator register for further processing purposes (such as conditional jumps). In direct mode
the value read is only output in the value field of the reply, without affecting the accumulator.
Info
For a table with parameters and values that can be used together with this
command please refer to section 4.
Internal function: The specified value gets copied to the accumulator.
