•  Syntax: 10E3 1 RAMP   
RAMP eats 2 values from TOS:  
· The first value is the duration in ms.  
· The second value is the direction: >0 is normal expose direction from the low 
to the high end of the glass scale. Use 1 or -1.  
RAMP will cause a controlled slow speed motion at expose speed. The 
command needs some other presettings to prepare for this diagnostic "expose 
speed motion": resolution, number of beams, shaft encoder simulation. 
Example  : 
LTL > HRDWINIT SRCHIDX  
LTL > 24 NBEAMS  
LTL > 4000 RESOL  
LTL > 1 SIMENC  
LTL > 4E3 1 RAMP    ;4 seconds ramping 
•  Syntax: SRCHIDX 
SRCHIDX initializes the glass scale. The linear motor will drive the carriage 
in an "uncontrolled" way: current is switched per 2 windings (200 mil). When 
the index pattern is detected in the middle of the glass scale, the position will 
be taken as 200000000 or 200E6. 
•  Syntax: 0 SRCHWO PROPAR   
0 SRCHWO starts up an automatic routine to determine the offset between the 
first winding of the linear motor and the glass scale index. This procedure 
should be run whenever the relation between the glass scale and the linear 
motor windings has been changed, e.g. after replacing a glass scale. 
 Syntax: x y WINFOR  
Puts a force y on winding x of the linear motor.  
Limits: · force:    0 < y < 255  ➭
 use 155   !!!!!!!
   
· winding:  0 < x < 9  
 
Important   
Do not forget to turn off the force: 0 0 WINFOR 
 
Feeder and drum 
•  Syntax:   DRMON 
Turns on the drum motor. Use DRMOFF to stop the drum. 
•  Syntax: DRMPOS   .  
DRMPOS puts the drum position on TOS. 
•  Syntax: 0 1 FDPOW   
FDPOW eats two values from TOS:  
The first value is the stepper motor number: default is 0, since there is       only 
one stepper motor in use.  
The second value stands for the on/off condition:  
1 to switch the power on  
0 to switch the power off 
•  Syntax: FFLOAD 
FFLOAD will start a complete automatic film load cycle. 
•  Syntax: FFUNLD 
FFUNLD performs a complete unload cycle. 
•  Syntax: x FLMDOOR
