Sets or queries the rotary axis rollover value. When an axis has the POSITIONEXTROLLOVERENABLE flag set (ON), it means that POSITION EXTERNAL of this axis is rotary (i.e., the external position coordinates of the axis are periodical). POSITIONEXTROLLOVER defines the period (the length one revolution in user units) of PEXT of the axis.

The effect of this property is such that the external position (as seen by the user) is a modulus of the POSITIONEXTROLLOVER.
