As Axis type from Virtual Servo Axis to Servo Axis also add Output device as node 1

After the basic setting lets come to unit conversion setting 

Here in travel distance:: Command pulse count per motor rotation we will use is 1048576.

Because the motor encoder bit resolution is 20 therefore 2^20 = 1048576
