clear any fault status.

the gripper.
Caution
The rACT bit must stay on afterwards for any other action to be performed.
rGTO
The "Go To" action moves the gripper fingers to the requested position using the configuration defined by the other registers,
rGTO will engage motion while byte 3, 4 and 5 will determine aimed position, force and speed. The only motions performed
without the rGTO bit are activation and automatic release routines.
