DataMan Control Commands
Mirror paths and positions are manually programmed on the device through the use of DataMan Control Commands
(DMCC) via Telnet or Serial interface. For more information on DMCC communications, please refer to the DataMan
Communications and Programming Guide.
All DMCC commands related to the high speed steerable mirror use the following internal coordinate system, where α is
used to denote motion along the vertical axis, and β is used to denote motion along the horizontal axis.
Configuration Angle Limitations
1-Axis Scan Pattern 0°α, ±25°β
2-Axis Scan Pattern ±17°α, ±17°β

Sets/gets the mirror path sequence followed
during triggering.
Specify each value in a floating point format.
(For example, 10° as 10.0.)
