List Command laser_on_list
Function turns on the laser for a specified time interval
Parameter
delay
time interval in bits as an unsigned 16-bit value. 1bit equals 10µs.
Allowed range: 0 ≤ delay ≤ 65500
Integration Pascal:
procedure laser_on_list(delay: word);
C:
void laser_on_list(unsigned short delay);
Basic:
sub laser_on_list(ByVal delay%)
Comments • While the laser is turned on, the set position of the scanners is not changed. The next
list command will be executed when the programmed time interval has passed.
• The current settings for the laser delays are applied:
– At the beginning of the programmed time interval, the laser turns on after a
LaserOn delay.
– At the end of the time interval, the laser turns off with the corresponding
LaserOff delay.
• The command is useful for marking separate dots.
Ctrl Command laser_signal_off
Function turns off the laser immediately
Integration Pascal:
procedure laser_signal_off;
C:
void laser_signal_off(void);
Basic:
sub laser_signal_off()
Comments • This command is intended for direct laser control in combination with the command
laser_signal_on (see below).
• The command will be ignored if a list is executing at the moment.

List Command laser_signal_off_list
Function same as laser_signal_off (see above), but a list command
Integration Pascal:
procedure laser_signal_off_list;
C:
void laser_signal_off_list(void);
Basic:
sub laser_signal_off_list()
