8.7.5 Deactivating Processing-on-
the-fly Corrections
All Processing-on-the-fly corrections can be deacti-
vated (simultaneously for both directions) via the
command fly_return, which also allows the new
output position to be defined.
Notes
• If Processing-on-the-fly correction is not explicitly
deactivated, then it will also be active during
execution of subsequent lists, but not in the
pause between two lists
• Processing-on-the-fly correction enabled via
set_fly_x, set_fly_y, set_fly_2d, set_fly_rot,
set_fly_x_pos,
set_fly_y_pos
will also get deactivated if the same command is
called again but this time with invalid parameter
values. This could lead to a jump to an
unintended output position (also refer to the
command descriptions).
• If Processing-on-the-fly was activated via
set_fly_x, then
set_fly_y
vice versa. The same applies to
set_fly_y_pos. Other than that, every Processing-
on-the-fly command automatically deactivates
any Processing-on-the-fly correction activated by
another Processing-on-the-fly command (also see
section "Overview" on page
jump to a new output position might occur.
• Processing-on-the-fly correction activated by
set_mcbsp_in
or
set_mcbsp_in_list
deactivated if you call
set_mcbsp_in
set_mcbsp_in_list
with Mode = 0. Here, a hard
jump to an uncorrected output position might
occur.
• Processing-on-the-fly correction activated via
set_fly_x_pos, set_fly_y_pos, set_fly_rot_pos,
set_mcbsp_in
or
set_mcbsp_in_list
deactivated if you call the command for config-
uring online positioning (see
hard jump to a new output position might occur.
• To avoid hard jumps, you should only use
fly_return
to deactivate Processing-on-the-fly
correction.
• Processing-on-the-fly correction that was
activated via
set_multi_mcbsp_in
terminated via fly_return_z.

• When a command for deactivating Processing-
on-the-fly correction is called, then the deacti-
vation (as of version OUT 515) only occurs after
expiration of the scanner delay (hence the full
scanner delay will execute with Processing-on-
the-fly correction). In older versions, deactivation
would already occur before the scanner delay.
• If Processing-on-the-fly was activated via
set_mcbsp_in
or set_mcbsp_in_list, then the
fly_return
command deactivates Processing-on-
the-fly correction, but it doesn't deactivate
copying to internal memory locations (just like
with set_mcbsp_in(5)). To afterward also
deactivate copying to internal memory locations,
you can use set_mcbsp_in(0) or
set_mcbsp_in_list(0).
• Processing-on-the-fly correction will also get
deactivated (for both spacial directions simulta-
neously) via
stop_execution
stop.
