Sure, you can use:

Code: Select all

GetOutput (the_output, TachoLimit);
to read the current requested position.

Actually, PosRegAddAngle (the_output, 10) is equivalent to PosRegSetAngle (the_output, GetOutput (the_output, TachoLimit) + 10).

Are ther any specific commands to disable regulation?

If not, which 'normal' commands will disable it?

OK, let me rephrase the question.

If I want to reset the starting position for positive regulation -

1. Do I have to disable then re-enable regulation (if so, how)?

2. Can I just re-use the 'enable positive regulation' code and this automatically resets the starting point?

Advice appreciated as it affects how I write the program.

Yes, calling PosRegEnable will reset everything.
