Ctrl Command set_offset
Function
defines an offset in the X and Y directions which will be added to all subsequent vector
outputs.
Parameters
x_offset,
y_offset
offset in
bits
Allowed range: [ – 32768 …+32767]
Integration
Pascal:
procedure set_offset(x_offset, y_offset: smallint);
C:
void set_offset(short x_offset, short y_offset);
Basic:
sub set_offset(ByVal x_offset%, ByVal y_offset%)
Comments
• See
chapter 5.1 "Coordinate Transformations", page 40

List Command
set_offset_list
Function
same as
(see above), but a list command
Integration
Pascal:
procedure set_offset_list(x_offset, y_offset: smallint);
C:
void set_offset_list(short x_offset, short y_offset);
Basic:
sub set_offset_list(ByVal x_offset%, ByVal y_offset%)
Comments
• This command allows definition of an offset within a list.

Ctrl Command set_piso_control
Function
changes the delay which is inserted before the RTC
®
4 reads the Status Signal Word from
the scan head
Parameters
L1, L2
lengths of the data cables for scan head A and scan head B in meters
Integration
Pascal:
procedure set_piso_control(L1, L2: word);
C:
void set_piso_control(unsigned short L1, unsigned short L2);
Basic:
sub set_piso_control(ByVal L1%, ByVal L2%)
Comments
• This command provides adjustment of the timing of the (bi-directional) communication
between the scan head and the RTC
®
4 to reflect the length of the data cable.
• The command
should
be used if the data cable is longer than approximately 12 m
(and if the Status Signal from the scan head is to be evaluated).

chapter 6.5 "Data Cable", page 55
• The maximum length for the data cable is 75 m.
