How to interpret target position of configureMotorPosition method?

[wycongwisc]

I'm trying to set the motor position of a revolute joint but am not sure what the targetPos argument should be. It doesn't seem to radians or degrees and its not mentioned in the documentation. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Lets say you have a wall clock, where the arrow is joined with the clock face with the revolute joint. The target position is a number (radians? can't recall actually) which represents the angle of the arrow or what time it shows.

These are the orientations when targetPos is set to 0, Pi/2, Pi, 3*Pi/2 and 2*Pi respectively (you are seeing two rigid bodies on top of each other, with a revolute joint on the y-axis between them). Any idea why it would look like this?
