Vector-Defined Laser Control

The "vector-controlled laser control"
allows a a signal parameter to be varied linearly along
a mark vector or jump vector.
To initialize the ""vector-controlled laser control"",
set_vector_control must be used to specify which
signal parameter is to be varied with which initial

Then the signal parameter is varied linearly along a
parameterized mark or jump vector. The end value is
automatically the start value for a subsequent

Notes
• List commands for explicitly changing the signal
parameter output value are temporarily effective
or not at all.
• [*]para[*] Commands always use the end value of
the previous [*]para[*] Command

Control commands that write to the same
output port should be avoided while processing a
list of [*]para[*] Commands.
