Model 2090 Multi-Device Controller
CL?
Compatibility:
1090, 2090
Description:
Queries the turntable's counterclockwise limit. The value returned is either in
N1 (XXX) or N2 (XXX.X) format depending upon the current numeric mode.
Negative values are preceded by a "-" minus sign.
Devices:
Turntables
Syntax:
CL?
Response:
[-]XXX[.X]
Value of the counterclockwise limit setting in
degrees.
Example:
CALL ibwrt (TableUD%, "CL?")
' Query turntable counter
' clockwise limit
CALL ibrd (TableUD%, rdbuf$)
' Read response

CP
Compatibility:
1050, 1060
Description:
Query the current position. The value returned is either in N1 (XXX) or N2
(XXX.X) format depending upon the current numeric mode. Negative values
are preceded by a "-" minus sign. Towers return current position in
centimeters, turntables return it in degrees.
This command is obsolete.
On
the models 1050 and 1060, this command changed the front panel to display
the current position and prepared the controller to respond to all future reads
with the current position. This is not compatible with the IEEE 488.2
standard; the program
must
send the CP command before each read. For
programs which will not be used with a model 1050 or 1060, use the CP?
command.
Devices:
Towers, Turntables
Syntax:
CP
Response:
[-]XXX[.X] Value
of
the current position in centimeters for
towers or degrees for turntables.
Example:
CALL ibwrt (TowerUD%, "CP")
' Query tower current position
CALL ibrd (TowerUD%, rdbuf$)
' Read response
CALL ibwrt (TableUD%, "CP")
' Query turntable current posn
CALL ibrd (TableUD%, rdbuf$)
' Read response
