• MinValue and MaxValue will be automatically exchanged if MinValue > MaxValue; if necessary,
MinValue will be clipped to  Value and MaxValue clipped to  Value.
• The control data for position- and/or speed-dependent laser control will be exclusively derived
from the scan system data at the primary scan head connector and then also applied for the
secondary scan head connector (if that connector has been activated and a scan system is
attached). At the time the command is issued, the primary scan head connector must already
have been assigned a correction table, otherwise error code 1 will be returned and Ctrl will
be set to 0. If only the secondary scan head connector is being used and/or the scan system at
the primary scan head connector is shut off, then speed-dependent laser control will not func-
tion.
• For Mode = 2, a functioning iDRIVE

available without any restriction.
• Encoder-speed-dependent laser control (Mode = 5) will function even if no scan heads are
attached to the scan-head connectors at runtime. The Processing-on-the-fly option doesn't
need to be activated here either.
• If the values for Ctrl or Mode are invalid, then set_auto_laser_control will not be executed
(return value 3 or 4,

In RTC 4 compatibility mode for Ctrl = 1/2, the specified values for Value, MinValue and
MaxValue are internally multiplied by 4. For Ctrl = 4/5 in RTC
parameter values for Value, MinValue and MaxValue must be specified in units of 1/8 µs. They will
then be internally converted to 1/64 µs units (i.e. multiplied by 8). The permissible range of values
is correspondingly smaller.
