5.4.4. OM=n; OM? – Operation Mode
The OM command is used to set or query the current operation mode. There are five available modes: MANUAL,
SEQUENCE (internal clock), SEQUENCE (external triggered), ANALOG (internal clock), and ANALOG (external
triggered).
OM=n
Sets the operation mode. The value of n can be one of the following:
n=1: MANUAL
n=2: SEQUENCE (internal clock)
n=3: SEQUENCE (external triggered)
n=4: ANALOG (internal clock)
n=5: ANALOG (external triggered)
OM?
Queries the current operation mode.
Return:
OM=n
where n is the current operation mode, see above for values of n.
5.4.5. BW=n; BW? – Bandwidth Mode
The BW command is used to set or query the bandwidth mode of the filter. KURIOS-WB1(M) and KURIOS-WL1(M)
optical heads have two bandwidth modes available: WIDE and BLACK. KURIOS-VB1(M) optical head has four
bandwidth modes available: WIDE, MEDIUM, NARROW and BLACK. KURIOS-XL1(/M) and KURIOS-XE2(/M)
optical head has two bandwidth modes available: NARROW and BLACK.
BW=n
Sets the bandwidth mode. The value of n follows the format of the lower 8-bit reported by the OH? command.
However, only one mode is supported at a time, with:
n=1: BLACK mode
n=2: WIDE mode
n=4: MEDIUM mode
n=8: NARROW mode
For KURIOS-WB1(/M) and KURIOS-WL1(/M), valid values for n are 1 (BLACK) and 2 (WIDE).
For KURIOS-VB1(/M), valid values for n are 1 (BLACK) and 2 (WIDE), 4(MEDIUM), 8(NARROW).
For KURIOS-XE2(/M) and KURIOS-XL1(/M), valid values for n are 1 (BLACK) and 8 (NARROW).
BW?
Queries the current bandwidth mode.
Return:
BW=n
where n is the current bandwidth mode, see above for values of n.
