Summary	Sets the distance to travel for knob manual movement in displacement mode.

Use this command to set the number of microsteps per knob detent when the knob is turned in displacement mode.

Each detent of a knob turn moves the device for a fixed number of microsteps. The device stops if the number of microsteps left in the max/min range is less than the requested move command number.

The default setting for most devices sets a value such that one full cycle of the knob will result in one revolution of the stepper motor.

If this setting is set to 0, each step of the knob moves to the next or previous index position, similar to Move Index (Cmd 78) movements.

This setting is stored in non-volatile memory and will persist after power-down or reset.
