Ultra 3000i, 5000 Auxiliary Encoder - Reset

In my DeviceNet drive I can read the auxiliary counts by setting the feedback pointer to 8, (using output assy 9, this is the first four bits of the second 32 bit word) and then reading the data back in the feedback data bytes section (using input assy 12, this is 32 bits starting at bit 8 of the second 32 bit word). 

 

How does one reset or zero this Encoder count?

 

I don't think I ever figured out how to do this in my Ultra 5000 drive either,  I could read the counts using x = EncoderGetPos(2).....

I don't beleive this is possible other than doing a Drive Reset.
