(a) Only list commands, no control commands.
• The Processing-on-the-fly functionality
remains unchanged. Only its control has been
made more flexible.
• "Fly Extension" Commands are a flexible system
of Processing-on-the-fly applications.
– Most of them affect:
• only 1, only 2 or all 3 spatial axes
• alternatively 1 Rotary axis
– At the same time the following can be freely
assigned (Table 4)
• Encoder counter "Encoder0" or "Encoder1"
• and/or an McBSP input on each of theses
axes, even mixed
