+See :ref:`example_2 <ros2_control_demos_example_2_userdoc>` for an example using ``calculate_dynamics`` or :ref:`example_10 <ros2_control_demos_example_10_userdoc>` for using in combination with GPIO interfaces.
+
+Component Parameters
+####################
+
+calculate_dynamics (optional; boolean; default: false)
+  Calculation of states from commands by using Euler-forward integration or finite differences.
+
+custom_interface_with_following_offset (optional; string; default: "")
+  Mapping of offsetted commands to a custom interface.
+
 disable_commands (optional; boolean; default: false)
   Disables mirroring commands to states.
   This option is helpful to simulate an erroneous connection to the hardware when nothing breaks, but suddenly there is no feedback from a hardware interface.
   Or it can help you to test your setup when the hardware is running without feedback, i.e., in open loop configuration.
 
+mock_gpio_commands (optional; boolean; default: false)
+  Creates fake command interfaces for faking GPIO states with an external command.
+  Those interfaces are usually used by a :ref:`forward controller <forward_command_controller_userdoc>` to provide access from ROS-world.
+
 mock_sensor_commands (optional; boolean; default: false)
   Creates fake command interfaces for faking sensor measurements with an external command.
   Those interfaces are usually used by a :ref:`forward controller <forward_command_controller_userdoc>` to provide access from ROS-world.
 
-disable_commands (optional; boolean; default: false)
-  Disables mirroring commands to states.
-  This option is helpful to simulate an erroneous connection to the hardware when nothing breaks, but suddenly there is no feedback from a hardware interface.
-  Or it can help you to test your setup when the hardware is running without feedback, i.e., in open loop configuration.
-
 position_state_following_offset (optional; double; default: 0.0)
-  Following offset added to the commanded values when mirrored to states.
-
-
-custom_interface_with_following_offset (optional; string; default: "")
-  Mapping of offsetted commands to a custom interface.
+  Following offset added to the commanded values when mirrored to states. Only applied, if ``custom_interface_with_following_offset`` is false.
