5 In contrast to the RTC
®
4, bit#8 cannot not be used to lock or unlock the upper 8 bits of
the 16-bit digital output port for I/O commands. The RTC
®
5 automatically reserves (locks)
these bits for varioSCAN
FLEX
control via move_to. It’s not possible to explicitly release
these bits (release automatically occurs via load_program_file).
Otherwise: unchanged functionality for the bits that are also used on the RTC

List Command
set_control_mode_list
Function similar to set_control_mode (see above), but a list command
Call
set_control_mode_list( Mode )
Parameter
Mode
(as an unsigned 32-bit value)
Comments • The counter for external list starts is not reset by this command.

Ctrl Command set_default_pixel
Function defines the pulse length default value for the default pixel that terminates pixel output
mode.
Call
set_default_pixel( PulseLength )
Parameters
PulseLength
default pixel pulse length (as an unsigned 32-bit value).
1 bit equals 1/64 µs. Allowed range: [0 … (2
32
–1)]
Comments • In pixel output mode, the pixel pulse length at the end of an image line (at the begin-
ning of the default pixel) will get set to the specified default value (see page 194).
•When the RTC
®
5 is initialized (via load_program_file), the pulse length default value
is set to 0.
