Ctrl Command set_hi
Function defines gain and offset values for the galvanometer scanners of the scan system attached
to the specified scan head connector.
Call
set_hi( HeadNo, GalvoGainX, GalvoGainY, GalvoOffsetX, GalvoOffsetY )
Parameters
HeadNo
GalvoGainX,
GalvoGainY
GalvoOffsetX,
GalvoOffsetY
Comments • For information on using the command, see
• The specified gain and offset values overwrite the values that were set via
can themselves be overwritten via a subsequent call of auto_cal.
• Changed gain and offset values can trigger hard jumps. To avoid this, the transition is
automatically performed at the predefined jump speed (see set_jump_speed).
• If a parameter value is invalid, then the command will not execute
return code: RTC5_PARAM_ERROR). The command will likewise not execute
(get_last_error
is being processed or has been halted via pause_list) or the board's INTERNAL-BUSY
status is currently set. In contrast, the command is executed when a list has been
paused via
checked; therefore the return codes RTC5_BUSY and RTC5_PARAM_ERROR will not arrive
simultaneously.
• If the "second scan head control" option has not been enabled, values specified for the
secondary scan head control will have no effect.

Ctrl Command set_input_pointer
Function opens the list buffer for writing with list commands and sets the input pointer to the
specified (absolute) address in list memory ("List 1" or "List 2"). The next list command will
be stored at this address and all further list commands at the subsequent addresses in the
selected list.
Call
set_input_pointer( Pos )
Parameter
Pos
Comments • The set_input_pointer command performs basically like the command
set_start_list_pos
pointer based on a specified absolute memory address, whereas
uses a specified list number and a relative memory address.
• For Pos  Mem1 + Mem2 (see config_list), Pos is set to 0.
