Description
format
energy xx.yy J If the ICE450 has been configured to allow energy settings
(using the "FSM" factory command), this command queries
where "xx.yy" is the
or sets the flashlamp energy. The energy is the electrical
energy in joules
energy stored in the flashlamp capacitor, calculated as
½CV².
freq xxx.yyHz Queries or sets the flashlamp firing frequency. This is
the rate at which the flashlamp fires when in Internal
where "xxx.yy" is the
Synchronization mode. When the flashlamp is in External
present frequency
setting in hertz.
Sync, the external trigger frequency compares with this
setting.
ct LPnnnnnnnnn Queries the total number of flashlamp firings since shipment
from the factory.
cu LPnnnnnnnnnn Queries the number of flashlamp firings since the resetting
of the count. Reset the flashlamp count with every flashlamp
replacement.
cu LP0000000000 Resets the number of flashlamp firings. Send this command
after replacing the flashlamp.
bypass: nnnn Queries or sets the external flashlamp trigger delay bypass.
When BYPASS is set to 0 (off), there is a 500 μsec delay
where "nnnn" is "off"
between the rising edge of the external tirgger input and the
μ
(500 sec delay) or
rising edge of the flashlamp synch internal trigger. When
μ
"on" (0.5 sec delay).
BYPASS is set to 1 (on), there is only a 0.5 μsec delay.
The response to a query is the current state of the bypass
(on or off). The BYPASS command only takes effect when
transitioning from Stop to Fire.
Note: The delay bypass is only valid if Q-Switch Trigger
mode is set to external (QE). If the Q-Switch trigger mode is
set to internal (QI) there will be a 500 μsec delay.
