Variable
activate_fly_xy
List Command
Function
activates a
Restriction
If the Processing-on-the-fly option is not enabled, then the command terminates the
Processing-on-the-fly process (even though it couldn't have been activated).
Call
activate_fly_xy( ScaleX, ScaleY )
Parameters
ScaleX,
ScaleY
Comments
• If no Processing-on-the-fly correction is active, then activate_fly_xy will activate
set_fly_x/set_fly_y
activate_fly_xy doesn't thereby reset the encoders, but instead recalculates the last
Processing-on-the-fly-uncorrected coordinate values such that the Processing-on-the-
fly-corrected output matches the current output. If the then-current recalculated coor-
dinate values would have fallen outside the 24-bit virtual image field, then Processing-
on-the-fly correction won't be activated and an error bit will be set that is queryable via
get_marking_info
• If Processing-on-the-fly correction is active, then activate_fly_xy will be a short list
command without further effect and merely sets an error bit queryable via
get_marking_info
Processing-on-the-fly mode or the scaling factors of the same mode
• You can also query the error bit via the short list command
to possibly jump to an appropriate error handling routine.
• Successful activation via activate_fly_xy doesn't reset any already-set error bit. It will
remain set for
• If unallowed parameter values are supplied (e.g. for ScaleX = 0), then activate_fly_xy
will (already during loading) be replaced by a
RTC5_PARAM_ERROR).
• activate_fly_xy doesn't affect the laser signals ("laser active" laser control signals will
remain on/off if they were on/off).
