Ctrl Command set_softstart_mode

Function

switches softstart mode on or off.

Call

set_softstart_mode( Mode, Number, Delay )

Parameters

All parameters are unsigned 32-bit values.

Parameter

Allowed Values

Description

Mode

= 0

= 1, 11

= 2, 12

= 3, 13

disables the softstart mode, but does not remove previously loaded
softstart values.
the softstart values defined via

set_softstart_level

will be outputted as

analog voltage values at the ANALOG OUT1 port.
the softstart values defined via

set_softstart_level

will be outputted as

analog voltage values at the ANALOG OUT2 port.
the softstart values defined via

set_softstart_level

specify the

pulselenghts of the first

Number

laser signal pulses at the LASER1 port

(neither in laser mode 4 nor in laser mode 6).

Number

1 … 1024

number of softstart values to be transmitted.

Delay

0 … (2

–1)

(1 bit equals 10

defines the time period for which the laser must have been switched off
before softstart will be activated at the next switch-on.

Comments

• The command

set_softstart_mode

must be called

before

first-time use of the

set_softstart_level

command, particularly if softstart values are to be outputted as

analog voltage values (default setting for softstart value handling:

Mode

= 3).

• The individual softstart values

Level

(0) –

Level

(

Number

– 1) must be provided individ-

ually via separate calls of

set_softstart_level

. Indices for which no

Level

value was

supplied are undefined.

• If the values for

Mode

Number

are invalid, then softstart mode will be switched off.

• When softstart mode is switched off, the already transmitted values are not deleted and

can be further used after a renewed switch-on. Here, you shouldn’t unintentionally
switch between analog voltage values (

Mode

= 1, 2, 11 or 12) and pulselenghts (

Mode

= 3 or 13). In contrast, you can switch at any time between ANALOG OUT1 (

Mode

= 1

or 11) and ANALOG OUT2 (

Mode

= 2 or 12).

• The softstart mode is incompatible with the pixel mode (see

page 192

). The command

set_softstart_mode

will be executed, but softstart will not be executed while pixel

mode is operational.

• The softstart mode should

not

be used in conjunction with automatic laser control (see

page 140

) if automatic laser control readjusts the 12-bit output values at the

ANALOG OUT1 or ANALOG OUT2 output ports or pulse lengths (

PulseLength

) or

output periods (

HalfPeriod

) of the laser signals LASER1 and LASER2.

Softstart mode cannot be combined with “freely definable wobbel shapes”. If one is
defined and activated, the command will have no effect.

• Observe the notes in the section

"Softstart Mode" on page 135

RTC



RTC

5 essentially unchanged functionality (except for the extended range of values)

Instead of acquiring analog softstart values with the trailing edge of the laser signal pulse
(as achievable in the RTC

4 with

Mode

= 1, 2 or 3), a 180° phase-shifted laser signal can be

used as a trigger signal for realizing phase-shifted data acquisition with the RTC

5 (see

notes in the section

"Softstart Mode" on page 135

). An index shift will no longer exist

under any circumstances.
