Ctrl Command config_laser_signals
Function
configures the laser signal types to be outputted on pin 1 (LASER1), pin 2 (LASERON) and
pin 9 (LASER2) of the LASER connector.
Call
config_laser_signals( Config )
Parameter
Config
desired signal configuration as an unsigned 32-bit value
Thereby the following bits configure:
Bits # 0-1: Pin 2 (LASERON channel)
Bits # 2-3: Pin 1 (LASER1 channel)
Bits # 4-5: Pin 9 (LASER2 channel)
Bits # 6-31 are ignored
To the following signal type:
= 0 = 00
b
: LASERON signal
= 1 = 01
b
: LASER1 signal
= 2 = 10
b
: LASER2 signal
= 3 = 11
b
: FirstPulseKiller signal
The default setting (after
) is
Config
= 100100
b
= 0x24 = 36
Comments
• The specified configuration takes effect the next time the laser is switched on. There-
fore, the command shouldn’t be issued during an active marking procedure.
Examples
•
Config
= 000111
b
: FirstPulseKiller signal on LASERON channel, LASER1 signal on
LASER1 channel, LASERON signal on LASER2 channel
In this configuration, LASER1 signals synchronously generated with the LASERON signal
can be immediately outputted, whereas the laser itself switches on only after a delay by
the FirstPulseKiller signal.
•
Config
= 100100
b
(default setting): LASERON signal on the LASERON channel, LASER1
signal on the LASER1 channel, LASER2 signal on the LASER2 channel
In this configuration, LASER1 signals can only be switched on after the laser, not before
it (here the LASERON signal is the laser start signal; LASER1 signals can’t be outputted
before the laser start, because the RTC
®
5 only generates LASER1 signals if the LaserON
signal is on).
