Ctrl Command get_hi_data
Function
returns the current positions of the home-in sensors for scan head A (primary scan head
connector) of the current RTC
®
4 board.
Result
x1,x2,
y1,y2
coordinates of the current home-in positions in
bits
as unsigned 16-bit
values
Integration
Pascal:
procedure get_hi_data(var x1, x2, y1, y2: word);
C:
void get_hi_data(unsigned short *x1, unsigned short *x2, unsigned
short *y1, unsigned short *y2);
Basic:
sub get_hi_data (x1%, x2%, y1%, y2%)
Comments
• This command can only be used in combination with a scan head equipped with
sensors for automatic self-calibration.
• The command is provided for diagnostic purposes in addition to the command
Ctrl Command get_input_pointer
Function
returns the present list input pointer, i.e. the position in the RTC
®
4 list buffer where the
next list command will be stored.
Result
list input pointer [0 … 7999] as unsigned 16-bit value.
Integration
Pascal:
function get_input_pointer: word;
C:
unsigned short get_input_pointer(void);
Basic:
function get_input_pointer()%
Comments
• This command is useful for reading the ADC input values from a raster image scan.
