Signal1, Signal2
= 0, 24 and 31…42 enables logging of values that were outputted
during the previous clock cycle. During the current clock cycle, the corresponding
signals may change after logging, either automatically or via control and list
commands.
•
Signal1, Signal2 =
24 enables logging of the signal parameter that will be automat-
ically adjusted during position- and/or speed-dependent or encoder-speed-dependent
laser control (see
set_auto_laser_control ). Logging only occurs when automatic laser
control has been activated and the laser is on. For switched-off lasers, 0 is logged.
•
Signal1
,
Signal2
= 31 enables logging of the signal parameter specified for vector-
defined laser control (see set_vector_control ). Logging is also possible without
executing para commands, but then the signal values remain unchanged.
• Pulse length and output period (
Signal1, Signal2 =
37, 38) will only be logged for
“Laser active” laser control signals (not standby signals). In softstart mode (see
page 135 ) and in pixel-output mode (see page 192 ), the pulse length and output period
might possibly change faster than the 10 µ s clock period (time resolution of logging via
set_trigger ).
• For
Signal1, Signal2 =
39…42 see chapter 6.9.1 "Free Variables", page 92 .

RTC

5 unchanged basic functionality (measurement storage), however:
• The measurement session can be aborted (unlike with the RTC
®
4) without losing the
previously acquired measurement values (see
Period
= 0 above).
• The RTC
®
5 has no
StatusAZ
and
StatusBZ
(RTC
®
4:
Signal1/2
= 3, 6) signals. Only
either
SampleAZ_Corr
or
SampleBZ_Corr
(
Signal1/2
= 12, 15) simultaneously supplies
a meaningful signal (also see the above information on 3D systems).
• The
Sample<X…Z>
and
Sample<AX…BZ>_Corr
signals have a different meaning on the
RTC
®
5 than on the RTC
®
4 (see information above).
• On the RTC
®
5, all coordinate values are relative to the image field centerpoint 0 and lie
within the range [–2
19
… (2
19
–
1)]. For the RTC
®
4, in contrast, the effective output
values transmitted to the scan system are in the shifted range of [0 … (2
16
–
1)]. The
latter also applies if the scan system is controlled by a RTC
®
5 in conjunction with the
XY2-100 converter (also see page 126 ).
