system manual Part I : installation & operation 6.2
The “star” commands currently implemented and disclosed are listed next. Some depend
of the generator being “on line”, but most often, simulating a waveform is possible without
perturbation to the signal generation
7
. Note that the order of execution of the star commands
may be important
8
: the only guaranteed method to impose the order of execution is to issue
requests having a single command or control.
In the following: • [HW] means hardware ”on-line” required for correct execution
• b boolean: entering ”t” produces a True value, ”f” or ”0” yield False.
Note that the only way to enter a true value is with lower ”t”.
• n integer
CONT b Enables/disables the continuous mode [HW] .
CYCLING b When True, ”Alternate” becomes ”Cycling”.
MEMA n Changes the memory slot pointed by A. Error window if n is beyond the generator
limit or if the memory n is not present. Dazzler generators have various amount of memory,
this is indicated by the “Nb of Mems (RAM)” box on monitor ⇒ configuration panel [HW]‘.

MEMB n Changes the memory slot pointed by B [HW].
ONLINE b Operates the on/off line status [HW].
ONLYCOMPUTE b Does not load waveform, just computes it and write results into
c:/dazzler/data/SpectraCurves.txt
9
. This command can be used to check if a wave-
form is safe to load in the crystal. This command issues a fake “LOAD” and does not affect
the hardware.
REM LOAD EN b Operates the remote control status. Note that once set to OFF (F) the
request.txt file is no longer being polled, hence the transition remote-off to remote-on can
only be achieved by the manual action of the operator or by the socket interface.

typically, one would display memA and load in memB
